jydejyde,

Thanks for the response, I did try what you suggested
here, but the same result!  It brings up the very same
chart, therefore there is no difference at all. I
guess that there is just no solution,  fore I believe
that I have tried everything, looks like this program
is just not useable for me, thanks all for the help
and good luck and happy trading!

Mike
