Hello Kevin & Kamal,
I
might be way off here but I have grown to like the v8.1 approach. Initially I
was surprised at having to set up a favorite’s folder with all my
securities in it, to run explorations, but having done it once it’s now
so easy to add securities for each new exploration. Simply click on Favorites
folder when asked to add securities, highlight the first security, hold down
the shift key and page down, and you then open all the securities in your Favorites
folder, very simply and quickly. The exploration thereafter ‘remembers’
the securities unless you overwrite by removing them etc.
For
my money it sure beats going into each of 26 folders and adding each security
etc (as per v7.2) every time I run a different exploration. Under v8.1 you only
open one folder.
I
hope I have not misunderstood the problem. Perhaps its just personal
preferences. And perhaps a final unrelated comment, I have been very agreeably
surprised at the helpfulness and responsiveness of Equis support. They have
solved two problems for me that were driving me to despair. And no I have no
association with Equis and I paid the going rate for v7.2 and v8.1
Regards

In v7.2, you don't have to create a new favourites
folder. You just add
each security folder to the exploration. It's very
quick using keyboard
shortcuts. Unfortunately, you cannot just select
the All Stocks folder
which contains your A-Z sub-folders in v7.2
either.
Regards,
Kevin
