Losing connection in Excel

[yursaduian]

Hi Gary Can you help please?

I currently use your code to obtain the saddlecloth numbers and RP tissue prices in my worksheets.

Everything works fine except that occasionally I seem to lose the feed and the numbers just go blank. Its frustrating when its close to the off and somtimes it can be flicking in and out every few seconds.

Is this a trait of using this code or is the problem closer to home? (I have a wireless network and my ISP is Virgin and I've never been 100% confident with either)

Also, before I replace my MS Excel program, is there any reason why this code won't work with the "OpenOffice" speadsheets?

Thanks for your help

I'll look into it.

Sorry, it's not compatible with Open Office.

I notice you are using version 1.1.0.38.

Try version 1.1.0.44 http://www.gruss-software.co.uk/Betting ... a_Test.msi

You must first uninstall the previous version using the Windows control panel.

Thanks Gary

I'll try the latest release today

I've used the latest version for two days and its just the same.

Like I said, it doesnt happen in every race but sods law means it will happen when its most damaging

Have you had a chance to have a look yourself?

Cheers

I cannot replicate the problem here, maybe there is something about your spreadsheet causing the issue. Would you be able to send me your spreadsheet so I can test it under the exact same conditions?

I've just emailed you my spreadsheet Gary

Thanks for any pointers
