I seem to be having problems using BARNUMBER, CURRENTBAR, CURRENTDATE, AND LASTCALCDATE... for some reason the line:

PRINT(BARNUMBER,CURRENTBAR,CURRENTDATE,LASTCALCDATE,MAXBARSBACK);

gives this printout log:


434.00  434.00 980402.00 980331.00   1.00
435.00  435.00 980402.00 980331.00   1.00

I assumed (from reading the manual), that Barnumber & currentbar would differ...

What i am trying to do is get the very last say 3 days of data ... in this case, the three days finishing on the 2nd April, and compare them to ALL the preceding days from the data that i have... my problem is identifying when i am up to the last three days of data so that i can begin the comparisson.... help !

Michael:

I've got exactly the same problem.  

I called Omega a month or two ago about this, and they told me they
recorded the problem and that there is no solution except to turn off
the server and manually delete the graphics files.  They also said that
I should get some consideration (ie., reduction in price) when buying
the TS 5 version.

It's a serious pain. I'll bet there's others with the same problem.
