I have imported text data to a new Watch List in the past but  every attempt  now has failed . I suspect I have forgotten the proper procedure:-

I would  copy a stock screen to EXEL, alphabetize it to a titled notepad and then import it to the Watch List in TC2000.

It worked like a charm.

Will you help please ? Every attempt to repeat this  has failed.

While you can sometimes create a Watchlist from a text file that just contains symbols amongst other text, I have found that it is best if you have a text file with a single column containing just symbols. To do this from Excel, it is generally possible to highlight a single column and copy and paste it to a text editor (and then Save the file from the text editor).

I've got a list of symbol in a text file, and I was wondering if it would be possible to import these symbols into a watchlist in Stockfinder ?Thanks in advance for your response

It's ok I found what I wanted, actually it's quite simple, you just have to copy the symbols from excel and paste it into your watchlist.Sorry for being to impatient, the answer was in the manual.
