Sorry Patrick, I assign stocks to groups, but I have no control over the symbols in the QP database. The groups are supplied to QP by Industry Monitors, the developer of HGS Investor software, and since I am heavily involved with HGS Investor, I help maintain the groups. Ron

I've tried contacting QP, as has at least one friend of mine -- but without success. The problem is that QP will ignore the symbols, however they appear in AmiBroker and must be manually removed, owever they reapper after every refresh. Very annoying. I think I got them all, however they must be manually searched for and I may have missed one or more. TIA.

I sent those below to Gary to reassign, and he will update them soon. OMX used to be Boise Cascade, and the group did not get changed over. The symbol SLW must have been assigned to another stock before July of 2005, and the group was not changed. The other two stocks are in the correct sectors, but the wrong industry groups. Thanks for you input.

I received a reply from Gary stating, in part, "I'll have someone else look at it". The problem still exists and I have sent follow up emails regarding this (the last one being on Friday) but they have not been answered. I'm not sure who the "someone" is but I'm hoping that this email gets to them as messages here seem to receive replies. I'm only trying to find out if this is going to be taken care of. SLW (Silver Wheaton) is a silver miner & doesn't belong in Paper Products. It should be in Mining-Gold-Silver-Gems. OMX (Office Max) also doesn't belong in Paper Products. ODP (Office Depot), SPLS (Staples), and others are all in Retail/Whlsle-Office Supplies. NKTR should be moved from Health-Services to Health-Biomed/Genetics. ALKS is in the latter and the profile of each reads almost exactly the same. MED (Medifast) should be moved from Food-Misc to Consumer-Cosmetic where it's direct competitors NTRI (Nutri Systems) & DIET (eDiets) are. These symbols are wrong in my Amibroker database from QP. I have manually changed them but I have to manually change them every time I do a "Retreive" for the symbols. The wrong listings are also in QP charts and SPP has them wrong as well so trying to compare the company PE with the Industry PE is incorrect along with other information. Thanks in advance for any help.
