Ken,

No problem. Good to hear that it is working fine on your end.

By the way: formulas shipped with AmiBroker did not use any of those new 
reserved words, so getting 0 replacements is not unusual.

  TJ:

  Well, it had not happened to me when I wrote the note.  I had done global 
search on all afl for the files and not found any.  I used the utility you 
publicized and replaced the words and got 0 replacements.

  I then installed 4.91 and so far everything is working---at least no syntax 
errors.

  Sorry--I should have tried it myself prior to posting.

  Ken

  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.

    TJ:

    I was one who asked for more Watchlists, so please do not change this work.

    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.

    Ken

    Hello,

    > I think I like the previous system better where List are not removable, 
thus avoiding unexpected results.

    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?

      Tomasz,

      List 5 was missing! .. somehow deleted, so the contents I wanted were in 
List 10, not in 11 where I was searching.

      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.

      Thanks

      Ara

        Ara,

        Make sure it is really 11th watch list.
        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.

          Having problems with using 

          List = CategoryGetSymbols(categoryWatchlist,11);

          The list returns a blank. The watchlist is populated and contents 
visible.

          Anyone having this problem??  Has there been a change in the way the 
watchlist is labeled??

          Ara
