P.S. I forgot to mention that I first bought SuperCharts in 1994 about 5 weeks after
I had purchased Metastock (which had fairly primitive programming capbilities).
Part of the sales pitch for SuperCharts then was its full-featured EL programming
capability.  Of course - Omega subsequently crippled that capability.  So - when I
went to upgrade in later years - I was urged to upgrade to EOD Tradestation.  And
almost did - until I found out that EOD TradeStation wasn't Y2K compliant (Omega
didn't exactly tell me it wasn't Y2K compliant - in 1996-97 - it told me it didn't
know).  And I'm glad I didn't upgrade.  Because Omega abandoned that product - and
apparently won't be providing a Y2K patch for it.

So this really isn't an issue of whether or not I'm willing to spend money for an
upgrade.  It's an issue of why should I spend money for an upgrade.  I can't see
spending money for an upgrade that doesn't give me anything that I don't already
have.  Robyn
