Use this, which will locate the string in the watchlist:

function GetSymbols()
{
 TickerList = "";
 SymbolList = CategoryGetSymbols(TickerCategory, TickerListNum);

 for(n = 0; n < NumTickers; n++)
        {
         Ticker                 = StrExtract(SymbolList,n);
WL_SP1500N100 = CategoryGetSymbols(categoryWatchlist, 9);
Found = 0;
Found = IIf(StrFind(","+WL_SP1500N100+",",","+Ticker+",") > 0, 1, 0);
if (SP1500N100 == 1 AND Found == 1 )
         TickerList     = TickerList + Ticker + ",";
        }
 return TickerList;
}
