: : : I"ve asked this question befor and did not get an adequate answer so I hope that this time will be different. The stack order of the charts and reports seems to be calculated differently and causes much confusion. It looks like the charts are generated using the closing price of both ends of the date range but the reports are generated using the opening price for the geginning date and the closeing price of the ending date of the range. This causes the stack order to differ between the charts and reports if the two are set to the same date range.

: : : Sometimes I can get satisfactory results if I set the chart range one trading day earlier than the report but even then there is often one or two out of order in the report.

: : : There is no trouble with my data and I hope you can address this problem soon and offer a fix for it.

: : : Also why is there no abiliy to arrange the reports by %gain-F?.

: : Hi Ken,
: : It sounds like you are really not asking about the stack order, but
: : getting agreement between graph and report values when doing sorting? There is only one stack order, and the order of investments displayed in the graphs is the same as the order the investments are listed on reports, which is the order of the stack.
: : Which type of sorting are you doing that doesn't seem to be consistent
: : between graphs/reports? Are you sorting by value? The value used is the
: : current value, independent of the graph dates. For a description of how
: : each of the sorting algorithms operate, go to the "Main Menu Commands" topic
: : in the online help, there is a description under the "Investments/Sort By"
: : area. Also, there is an "Investment/Sort By/%Gain-F" availabe from
: : the main graph menu.

: : If this still does not seem to work as you expect please provide a specific
: : example of what steps you take, and where you are looking at results
: : that don't make sense. This will help us to answer your question more
: : clearly.

: : Thanks,
: : Mark

: I'm tyring to sort using the %gain-F feature

You can sort by %Gain-F for the date range of each individual graph, only
from within the graphs menu.

Thanks,
Mark
