XL sheet freezing when Pending IR

Postby Medwin2 » Sat May 15, 2010 4:29 pm

Hi,
Is there a way to get the XL sheet to update when a bet is Pending in IR horse race?
When i place a bet the sheet freezes for 1-2 s so i cant place bets on another horse under that time.
Is that normal?
I dont use VBA script or a macro, just IF formula.

Mattias.

It is the way it is designed. It waits for the bet reference to be returned from Betfair. There is a 1 second delay imposed by Betfair when the market is in play. If the stake is below minimum then it will take 3 seconds as there are 3 transactions required to place the bet.

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.
