Hi Group,

1) PARAMETER PASSING TO FUNCTIONS - Is there any way to pass parameters to custom functions? For example I create a function using function builder named myFunction which has a user input for period. Is there any way to call it like Fml("myFunction", 14) if I want it for a period of 14 say?

2) CHARACTER LIMITS - Is there any easy way to get around the character limits in functions and explorer? I'm trying to do something like this in explorer to use a different RSI Threshold depending on the security -

limit:=If(ExtFml("myDll.myFunction","LNC.AX"),7,-1);
limit:=If(ExtFml("myDll.myFunction","LNN.AX"),9,-1);
limit:=If(ExtFml("myDll.myFunction","LWB.AX"),9,-1);
...
limit:=If(ExtFml("myDll.myFunction","MGR.AX"),3,-1);

RSI(C,2) <= limit

I'm trying to set the value of 'limit' based on the security I'm dealing with but am coming up with two issues. Firstly the character limit is exceeded and secondly there seems to be no 'switch' type statement so that in the above example, successive calls to 'If' will overwrite the previously assigned value. For example if the security is LNC then limit will be set to 7 but then revert to -1 on the next call. The alternative is nesting If statements which is sloppy too.

I guess that I could try hard coding my long formula and values into an external dll, but it's not a particularly elegant solution either.

Thoughts anyone?
