Mike, Norm:

You're welcome. I've gotten such great ideas and advice from the CANSLIM
list (especially from Katherine, Mike, and Tom), that I feel grateful
for the opportunity to contribute something useful to the list myself.

Most of the credit for that method actually goes to Andy Askey (not only
a member of this list, but also a fellow co-worker).  He was the one who
introduced me to the powerful features of marketguide's stock screener
along with a great many other things about CANSLIM and investing in
general.

Cheers,
Curt

Curt,

I would like to add my thanks.  There are several free sites that offer
the
same info but I think maybe this one is the best.

I was able to download it on my slooooooow dial-up so just about anyone
should be able to get it.

Norm
