"Well, it turns out that Recovery Squad damaged the platters of my drive beyond any possibility of repair and were probably lying to me every step of the way.

It will be a long (probably multi-month) programming project to get the GTR1 database updating again."

That's very disheartening.

I've been using the GTR1 ranking feature for two screens that I use, and now I'm adrift. The two screens are variants of Mungofitch's ROE_Cash screen. The screens turn over very slowly, so there wasn't much of a rush. I could put off the screen update for a month or two, but with a longer wait it becomes a problem. I've been producing the rankings with GTR1 using SIPro data. I wonder if anyone else is using the same screens on GTR1, or perhaps producing the same rankings through a different mechanism, such as directly within the SIPro database, or using VL data. If you have, I'd appreciate you sharing your method.
