Greg:
I am new to Metastock, and having the same problem (see thread
entitled: "Assigned Variable with Explorer"). Page 354 of the
Metastock 8 manual says explorations will NOT do what you (and I) want
to do. It seems like a real "make work" situation. I am also looking
for a workaround/fix. I hope someone out there has one.
