Thank you all

Yes. You always need to clear the bet ref column to allow more bets to be placed.

I've tried adding the pipe in the odds column and it won't accept it as I'm guessing it not in the right formula, I've googled how to do and found some info about adding like so '=AddDelimiter(AG5,AH5,AI5))' in the odds column (AG5, AH5, AI5 being the specified odds value) but all I get now is '#NAME' so guessing that's not right, any help please?
Thanks

For example to lay £2 at 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3 put 1.1|1.2|1.3 in odds column and 2|2|2 in stake column

R5 = AG5 & "|" & AH5 & "|" & AI5

Never knew about that, you should advertise it more as it's probably something a lot would use. Do the bets all go in the same place bets submission?

The strength of Gruss Software is that it’s been designed by one of you, a frustrated sports punter, and then developed by listening to dozens of like-minded enthusiasts.
Gruss is owned and run by brothers Gary and Mark Russell. Gary discovered Betfair in 2004 and soon realised that using bespoke software to place bets was much more efficient than merely placing them through the website.
Gary built his own software and then enhanced its features after trialling it through other Betfair users and reacting to their improvement ideas, something that still happens today.
He started making a small monthly charge so he could work on it full-time and then recruited Mark to help develop the products and Gruss Software was born.
We think it’s the best of its kind and so do a lot of our customers. But you can never stand still in this game and we’ll continue to improve the software if any more great ideas emerge.
