Ken, Inside comments you are free to use any word :-)
As to "why the syntax errors" - I am pretty much sure that you are using reserved keywords somewhere. Thomas from PatternExplorer.com had similar problem and it was resolved quickly by (as I assume) changing variable names. Did you try this: http://www.amibroker.com/kb/2007/04/05/new-keywords-in-afl-and-possible-conflict-with-user-defined-variables/ ? I am asking because I don't know what you mean with "checked almost all of my afl " - you have to check *all*, not "almost all", and the tool above allows to do so very quickly (max two minutes and you are done). Anyway: if you are getting syntax error inside include then this include for sure must be checked against using reserved keyword. Just load the file in question into the AFL editor and press "Check AFL" button and it will highlight the place where syntax is wrong.

HOWEVER, I have not upgraded because FastTrack users are reporting that many (most?) of their include files are showing up with syntax errors. You posted that five keywords need to be reserved and any use of those keywords will trigger a syntax error. I checked almost all of my afl files (includes and regular) and I never used a single new keyword, outside of comments. Does the new capability see keywords in comments? I would doubt it. So why the syntax errors with includes for FastTrack users? I notice that the several people who have reported this syntax error have not been very specific about the kind and detail of the error message they received. Doing so would be helpful.

Be careful what you are asking for ! First people asked to have unlimited watch lists - so I delivered it PLUS ability to ADD and REMOVE watch lists. Now you ask to NOT be able to remove watch list. Do you really mean that ??? What if you added thousands of watch lists and you one day decide that you don't need them?

I think I like the previous system better where List are not removable, thus avoiding unexpected results. Certainly addressing lists by description would help. Also showing all empty lists is more of a distraction than help.

Watch lists are numbered in the order they appear in the tree. If you delete watch list that is not the last one, then higher-numbered watch lists are re-numbered.

The watchlist is populated and contents visible. Anyone having this problem?? Has there been a change in the way the watchlist is labeled?? Ara
