<DIV><FONT size=2><BR>I tried to open some of my Layouts last night. The Daily 
chart portion of the Layout opened,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>but the Weekly did not. I got the error message, &quot;Date 
requested after last date in the data&quot;.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>When I opened a new smart chart and applied the Template for 
the Layout I got the same results.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Has anyone else run into this? When I look at the data in DL 
it looks fine.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Bill, see an answer to this kind of problem below. It was kindly taken 
from</DIV>
<DIV>Mike Arnoldi's previous mails to and with EqSupp reply attached and had as 
subjects:</DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>&quot;Re: Metastock EOD V6.52&quot; and &quot;[Fwd: Metastock EOD 
V6.52]&quot;</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV></DIV>
<DIV>I also refer you to my previous mails which had as subject</DIV>
<DIV>&quot;Re: Quotes-Plus v2.x Virtual Not Compatible with MS v6.52 &amp; Windo 
ws 98&quot;</DIV>
<DIV>of which I have printed a&nbsp; -shortened version-&nbsp; way down 
below.</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>So this is not due to Metastock doing &quot;True&quot; weekly countings(as 
I asumed it to start doing),</DIV>
<DIV>but it is due to your current Layouts containing pre-fixed displaying dates 
instructions for</DIV>
<DIV>any of the Layout's Charts, eg Charts dates display configurations that 
were last saved</DIV>
<DIV>when Layouts were (previously) used and &quot;saved&quot;.&nbsp; Note that 
on the attached GIF, the Chart's</DIV>
<DIV>'displaying'-dates(Jan99-Mar99) were past the last date in the Ahold's DL 
data-file. </DIV>

<DIV>Equis Support's reply : </DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>MetaStock 6.52 is an updated version so it contains some changes 
that<BR>are not the same as prior version.&nbsp; When you scroll from chart to 
chart<BR>in MetaStock 6.52 it uses the dates of the chart on the screen 
to<BR>attempt to load the same dates into the next chart that 
displays.<BR><BR>If the chart on the screen has retain scale set this will force 
the<BR>scrolling feature to use the same dates for the next chart.&nbsp; 
<BR><BR>If you do not want to use the same dates in the next chart you 
would<BR>either have to disable Retain Scale or just close that chart and 
use<BR>File|Open to open the next chart.&nbsp; If the next chart does not 
have<BR>Retain Scale set you could then continue scrolling from this 
chart.&nbsp;<BR><BR>Equis Support<BR><A

zoom box to zoom on any price chart, it works as it<BR>&gt; should, but ALL 
OTHER CHARTS are now also zoomed to the same level.<BR>&gt; (prior to the patch

<DIV>shortened version of my mail to EqSupp:</DIV>
<DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
<DIV>HOWEVER tonight, on opening one of my&nbsp; -above-&nbsp; mentioned 
'valuable but<BR>unavailable' Layouts, another dialog ERROR message was being 
returned:<BR><BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
&quot;Date requested is after the last date in the 
data&quot;<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 
- Retry or Cancel -<BR><BR>I had to press the Cancel button, to get at least the 
rest of the Layout to display<BR>and this error this time, is obviously due to 
fact that, as one of the Charts in this<BR>Layout is based on WEEKLY data, the 
MS program is now calculating weeks to<BR>be TRUE weeks, eg starting on Mondays 
and ending on Fridays and as today is<BR>Tuesday(19990105) and NOT the week's 
last date, eg coming Friday(19990108),<BR>then 
indeed<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &quot;the 
date(friday) requested, is after the last date(tuesday) in the 
data&quot;.<BR>Changing any other of the visable Charts of this Layout to weekly 
data returns the<BR>same error and changing them to monthly data returns the 
same error also.<BR><BR>Now how about that? Finaly I am having, with your 
precious help, an also precious<BR>Layout to be viewable again, then this 
&quot;mutulating the Layout&quot;-error spoils the<BR>Layout's 
intends...........<BR><BR>As an example see the attached 
&quot;auto004.GIF&quot;.<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>Ton Maas<BR><A
