Hi,
Can you please advise:
I want to be able to draw horizontal lines across a chart at the high and low point for the last four months and for this to update each month:
1. Current Month (say October)
2. Previous Month (September)
3. Next previous (August)
4. Next Previous (July)
The problem is I'm no programmer and I can't workout how to get beyond 1. I'm sure there is something out there in ibars or something but I just can't find it. If someone could point me at the documentation for this it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
