Is there away to flag stocks on a watchlist in blocks similar to the feature in telechart? I am used to telechart and am just testing out blocks and am trying to figure out also where I can learn more about the syntax code?
Thanks

JOEURQ77,
I will move this to the Ask A Trainer Forum for Blocks on your behalf. Thank you

JOEURQ77,
The WatchList Basics video includes information on Flagging in Blocks.
The following reference documents are useful in learning about Blocks (the RealCode Reference would be the closest I can think of to a syntax guide):
Blocks User Guide
BackScanner Workbook
"Rapid Fire" Guide
What's new in Blocks 3.1
RealCode Reference
Blocks Training Class Notes

Personal Criteria Formulas

Joeurq77,
I watched the video referenced by Bruce and one approach is not demonstrated. The approcj is just to flag element in a displayed watchlist. This can be accomplished by adding a flgo column and then double clicking the flag box to activate the flag.
Note creating the flag column is really creating a new user watchlist, so the model does not match Telechart. In Telechart the flag is an independent attribute. In Blocks the flag is a watchlist assignment tag.
Double clicking on the flag again unassigns the flag and remove the symbol from the watchlist.
What is still missing from Telechart is flag/unflag all symbols above/below current symbol but this can be accomplished as demonstrated in the video using shift-click with drag and drop to the user watchlist.
Here are some screen shot for adding a new flag column:
