 ron, 
  
Assuming you are referring to futures, the first 2 
letters of your symbol do not change.

  Subject: RE: [amibroker] Re: How can i 
  make a table to change symbols 1 place every 3 months 
  
  thanks for the reply, yea i remember--but that was for 
  database and merging the expiring contract with the new one.
  my 
  request for some help is so i don't have to change the SetForeign 
  symbol every 3 months in 10 or charts/indicators.  I have specialized 
  indicators for the different symbols and changing them is a 
  pain...
  i'd like someway to cross reference a current symbol (which 
  will change every 3 months) to an "alias" symbol.  the alias would be 
  the one used in the SetForeign.

  Hi Ron Something similar was covered a few weeks back. 
  From memory they decided to create a NEW ticker with the NEW symbol every 
  three months and then use the Symbol>Merge function to merge it with the 
  previous symbol. Regds Gerard
