Apparently TS 3.5 DOES have an exchange filter. Remember when BMI
changed data sources, and I stopped collecting some indices like NDX,
but TS4.21 folks reported continued collection. BMI had simply
changed the exchange for those symbols to MIC; once I renamed the
symbols, they came flying through my exchange filter.
Yet another way that TS 4 was a step backward from good old 3.5.
