Re: Is this possible ?

Thank you very much for this answer...however, I was hoping that 
there might be some type of sum formula that would give me the total 
of the database I was scanning so that I could use this scan with 
multple databases without having to figure how many tickers were in 
the database each time I changed databases.

I know I'm asking a lot, but I'm not very good at programing, as you 
probably can tell.

Thanks
