No offense taken at all. And thanks for the history behind "Belgian dentist" (I'm
certainly old enough to have heard the term - just never knew what it meant).

I paid more for SuperCharts 2.1 but whatever I paid for it - it has paid for
itself many times over. I started to think about upgrading to TS in about 1996
(when later versions of SuperCharts were crippled when it came to full EL
capability). But it wasn't Y2K compliant. So I waited and waited and waited.
Now I'm following the stories about TS2000 - because SuperCharts 2.1 isn't Y2K
compliant. About the best SuperCharts 2.1 will do is start accepting year 2000
data in 2000 - but it can't read a data file which spans both centuries (the exact
break date in the database is about 2/29/00). I suppose if worse comes to worse -
I will simply start anew with SuperCharts in 2000 (and transfer some of my work to
Metastock or another program). Robyn
