This is excellent, and it's been there since 2.80. Sorry about that - I'll have to redouble my efforts to "READ THE MANUAL!" Thanks Tomasz Joe L.

How about a ^ for up and a > for sideways,... just kidding. This is from TJ quite a while back.

I have written a AddTextColumn and used a WriteIf statement to put in words describing a trend, such as "Up Trend" if a parameter is above a certain value and "Down Trend" if the value is below a certain value. I would like to have a green up arrow or red down arrow instead of the text described above. Is this possible? If not, how might you achieve an automation of some sort (say with the exported table rather than within AB itself) so you could put said symbol in the cells instead of words? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Ken _____ No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition. Version: 7.5.446 / Virus Database: 268.18.9/719 - Release Date: 3/12/2007 8:41 AM
