Script Below


--------------
AB = CreateObject("Broker.Application");
sts = AB.Stocks();
Qty = sts.Count;


for( i = Qty - 1; i >= 0; i = i - 1 )
{
 st = sts.Item( i );
 Ticker = st.Ticker;
 printf("changing " + ticker + "\n" );
 Length = StrLen(Ticker );
 if( StrFind(ticker, ".TO") )
      st.Ticker = StrLeft( ticker, Length-3)+"-TC";
}

-------------

I have a database with many symbols and the script [above] change latest 
(RIGHT) 3 letter of any symbol.

Now, how can I change the script above to modify the "FIRST THREE" of any 
Symbol ?


Thanks
Lino
