If you don't mind, how did you reproduce the list with the free version? I have access to it as well.

Were the results similar to the paid?

These are the notes from a year ago. Apologies if it makes no sense.

Make these any:

Long Term Debt - From 0 # Stocks 250
No Long Term Debt # Stocks 19

Display 500
Sort by Name - IMPORTANT!
Copy header and drag down

In Excel:
Paste Special Unicode Text
Sort by names to remove spaces
Fix the units for Long Term Debt
Add column 'Cash - LTD'
Sort by 'Cash - LTD'

IIRC you do this twice, once for 'Long Term Debt - From 0' and once for 'No Long Term Debt'.

This produced a list similar to Jim's but not the same.
The top 32 of the 40 stocks were the same as Jim's with one exception, and it was clearly an error in the data.
The 8 missing stocks didn't make my list of 269 stocks.

Good luck!
