looking up and matching runners in Betting Assistant

Postby jonn » Sat Feb 13, 2010 7:33 pm

Hello,

I have name, time and racecourse of horse bets in excel and would like to know if it is possible to automatically locate the correct market and place the bets based on this information?

Thanks for any help in advance

If you can supply the race in the following format then I can produce an example using the COM interface. It would be a small bit of VBA that can open the market based on this information.

Here are some examples of the format required.
Kemp 14:05
Here 14:20
Extr 14:30

The race course abbreviations are listed here http://bdp.betfair.com/index.php?option ... id=59&id=4

Cheers Gary,

I think that would help greatly.

I have mailed you an example of my excel sheet if that helps

Sports betting software from Gruss Software


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.
