Odds Request

[Michal]

Hi,

Im still comin to tearms with Betfair all together as well as the BA, I now have a program in VB.net that interfaces with the spreadsheet ...... I tried the com object but I was getting an error and as Im not very skilled in programing I just went with what I can do to do what I want !

Anyway, I would like to ask for odds about a horse which is something that one is supposed to be ablle to do on Betfair .......

I asume that I just place the WANTED adds in R Column on my horses row ???

What happens then ?

Do the odds have to be matched by someone exactly or will I get a price better then my odds if available from someone else who places an offer higher them mine?

Could someone explayin this a bit and how it works using BA?

Michal

could someone also explain how to modify the price of the bet if it isnt matched and I want to say bet at the current odds?
how would I do this in the spreadsheet ?

thank you

Hi,

If you just wanted to use the current odds and it was a BACK bet for example; in the odds column which I am assuming is the usual column R then you would key in cell R5 for example =F5 and in R6, =F6 etc
