Log current prices to excel problem

[laffo16]

Hello everyone, im laffo16, i've just registered up. Im trying to display my current active market in excel using "Log Current Prices" to Excel feature. I have Microsoft Excel 2003 edition. I open up an excel doc, then run the feature, but it does not detect the workbook name or work sheet names etc. Am i missing something? i just get empty combo boxs.

Try closing Excel and then display the task manager (alt-ctrl-del). End any processes named Excel.exe then re-open Excel. Does this help?

yes, their was an in-visable instance of excel running, thank you! ive updated twice in the last hour, now on version 1.0.1.15. have you been releasing these updates just now gary?

does the software check for updates when started and then re-occuring checks happen every 10 minutes or so?

oh and lastly, how do i close new page tabs?

Hi laffo16

To close a TAB, right click anywhere in the market page and select Close.

thanks Castillo! As one of my first targets, i'll be developing a script which extracts the racing data from the auto-updating excel sheet, and storing them on seperate excel sheet, with timestamps. effectivly recording each races flow of odd's and money within the 5-10 minutes before the race starts. All in the aid of trying to identify a good automated stratagie to exploit. I'm guessing scripts like this already exsist. Any suggestions on this matter?
