This feature is not supported with the desktop API.

However, you can visit our symbol guide at:

no other page comes up.... can you provide me a link to get more infomation on the symbol guide.

Alex,

Thanks for link. I have downloaded the esignal 7.9 application and used the symbol lookup tool which displays 16 stocks at a time. I am unable to find a way to transfer the symbols to a file.

The objective is to get a active stock file that I can use with my activex application.

Does the scanner application allow up to transfer symbols to a file?

Thanks,
Kip

As far as I know the scanner outputs only to the Quote Window
