The section called "Roll Your own Indexes" on Page 64 of the FormulaBook.pdf
tells you how to create an index using the "Create Composite" function in
the DownLoader. See the files section of this forum for the file. There is
also a way of simulating the Security() function with MS EOD which I can
explain on the TE forum.
