Ticker Lists in Usable Form?

[Corso482]

Anyone know of a stock screener that outputs results in a format which can be cut and pasted?

For both Wealth Lab and Stockwatch Pro you have to input tickers with spaces in between them. As of now I have to manually type my tickers into that format. Thanks.

I once had a similar problem. My solution was to copy the ticker results with all it's accompanying info into a simple text file, run it thus 'sed' and "awk' for clean-up.

Another way would be doing this in a macro using your favorite editor. I would bet that 'vi' could do it.

Both ways are not truly nice or elegant, but they do the job with two times 'copy-n-paste' plus a little overhead.
