Thanks,Preston. Actually I have been keeping up with the discussion and have
tried the DLL without success. Metastock doesn't recognize the subroutine in
the DLL. Can't get around it. And am I correct that LastValue will give
accurate results if it doesn't have to look back? This trendline that I'm
using that redraws automatically at each new data point only uses the
current LastValue value? Thanks for your help. Rick.
p.s. You guys are a great resource. And very altruistic. Even though, I'm
sure,  that you learn a lot yourselves from these coding workouts.
