Well its a lot more complex than that. Say I need a specific metric from a set of financials....let's say that I want to take the net revenue of Apple and then divide it into the gross revenue. Now I want to do that for every stock the NYSE, Nasdaq and TSE. (I know that this screen is available...that's not what I'm trying to do here, its an example).

Basically what I want to do is a series of those types of calculations, screen those results. Do more calculations on the remaining results., and then screen those. Then lastly more calculations and rank the remainder.
