Vertical Study Line Dates
Spent several hours on this yesterday - I must not be reading something
right. Let me rephrase the question, On a horizontal study line you can
read the value of the study (x-axis ) and use it to compare to other values
in AFL. For a vertical line - what is the value being returned - dates,
datenum, nulls, true/false? I am assuming it is a date - but it must be
something else. I would like to ultimately read the y-axis (date) and
display it in a low level graphics table - but right now I can't even read
it,
Test Code follows :
Filter=1;
OSSID=1070;
AddColumn(Study("OD",OSSID),"OD1",formatDateTime);
AddColumn(Study("OD",OSSID),"OD2");
Any steering in the right direction is appreciated I am sure I am missing
some very basic point.
Best Regards
Dave

This is probably going to be easy. I am working with some low level
graphics and want the difference between two vertical study lines (dates) -
number of days. I realize that "currently" the low level graphincs works
with numbers (not dates) but I was hoping that the daysremaining would come
out to be an interger (like subtracting 2 dates in excel) or I could make it
come out as an integer. There must be a trick or function as I am sure you
can do this.
I have the following code:
Daysremaining = Study("OE",OSSID) - Study("OD",OSSID);
PrintInCell(StrFormat("%g",Daysremaining),6,4);
Thanks in advance
