Linda, I am glad to hear the Error is fixed. I still cannot understand though how your PC-value went down as result of a Buy Order!

Fair enough, if you approve of the mistakes your partner makes without consulting you. On your losses Uncle Sam is not your Partner! Losing money you have to do all on your own! :-( or :-) ????
