highlight the first stock in the list and scroll down to the middle of
the list, and while holding down the SHIFT key, click a symbol.  this
will highlight symbols from the first down to the one you just
clicked.  repeat for the balance of the list.  this is a standard
windows feature.  this selection technique applies to most types of
lists or objects.  you can hold the CTRL key to add one at a time.

in the symbol reference file are beyond the 2000 max, or I can add
symbols individually which would take too long.  I tried to "select
all" and back out 885 symbols but I couldn't highlight a block of
symbols by dragging the cursor, so that I would have to delete each
symbol individually.  I know I am doing something wrong here?   Can
you help me.
