Keith,
I have never tried Amibroker, although I have heard many good things about it. If the programming requires me to learn a new language, then it would be difficult for me. I am willing to compensate anyone who is familiar with the program to create whatever is required to retrieve the data I need. I must add that the charting of the data in Amibroker would be nice, but my focus is in retrieving this data in Excel format to analyze in a way with which I am familiar. All the best, Bijan _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Keith McCombs Sent: Friday, August 25, 2006 12:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [quotes-plus] Scan help Bijan -- You might try Amibroker. It will do what you want (and a whole lot more) and can use QP data. With Amibroker you will need to do a bit of programming. If you have any experience with programming it shouldn't be too difficult. -- Keith Bijan Khezri wrote: > > Howard, > > Thank you very much.
