Hi Rik
Yes, Remote Keys is just awesome! I too have written dozens of little
macros to automate otherwise unwieldy tasks, many not Best-Charts
related. I am astounded by the number of, and power of, its built-in
library of functions, many of which I haven't yet tried out. And it is
so robust - doesn't seem to mess with other 'resident' apps - and
loads and unloads so cleanly, without tampering with the Windows Registry.
Definitely the most useful piece of freeware I have ever seen. It's
arguably a little less user-friendly than the likes of EZ Macros, but
leaves it for dead when it comes to functionality and usefulness.
I will send you the profile under separate cover. It's pretty basic:
simply calls the URL panel from BC's Stocks menu and 'types' in the
relevant entries.
All the best
David
