Hello again Spyros !

First of all : thanks for your time and appriciated help.

2) something else then Excel Macro's :

    i noticed that the Zig zag sometimes gives a "reversal signal"
   on one day  and undo's it the next day : does this sounds familiar to you
?
   ( i am using the Zig zag with a 3 days moving Average of the zig zag
     and when the Zig zag goes below the 3 day moving average it gives a
sell
     mostly confirmed the next day by a  SR ZZ validity signal)
    sometimes also the SR ZZ gives a buy (or sell) and the next day it is
undone ??)


Then the Excel part :

Please look at my TL remarks :

TL : until here : i get it :)

TL : this i cannot get to work , the last item of this drop-down menu is
(translated)
      "to point Macro at"
i cannot  select  the
sub named "ThisWorkbook.DeleteDateColumns"
because it isnot there ?

TL :  i suppose that i had to bring the macro in
"ThisWorkbook.DeleteDateColumns"
       (which i donot have (anymore)


The things below i have to check still

Spyros : thanks a lot !
