Default Add an exchange column in intrument manager

I would like to suggest NT add an exchange column in intrument manager window so that besides the search feature to filter out instruments, the user may also find certain futurs products by sorting on exchange name, for example, listing all futures on NYMEX, ICE, etc.

Great idea!

One slightly cumbersome solution that might work in the meantime would be to add this 'DescriptionColumn.cs' file in the

C:\Documents and Settings\xxxx\My Documents\NinjaTrader 6.5\bin\Custom\MarketAnalyzer folder

and manually edit the instruments description field to either be the exchange name, or include the exchange name at the beginning of the description.

If you decide to do this, it might be faster to edit the Instrument.txt file in 'C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 6.5\db' rather than do it within Ninja. I could be wrong though.
