In Metaserver:
(i) Against 'Symbol Name', you put your symbol (whatever you have typed in column #1 in your TWSDde.xls spread sheet. Make sure you type it in same case (upper case or lower case).
It is also important you have the same symbol in your global server (upper case or lower case).
?
(i)Next, against ?DDE: you type 'excel.exe'.
(ii) Then, go into 'Trade/Volume'.
(iii) there, against 'DDE Topic' you put' TWSDde.xls'.
(iv) Then, against 'DDE Item' you put 'R15C13'.
It means row 15 and column 13.

Yes MetaServer pops up... and I have the row and column # from Excel.....?
?
In MS Symbol name I put in: DAX?
in DDE I put in: my user name... or Excel.exe or ???
?
In Trade/Volume, Trade Record is ticked, and DDE Topic is: .....? and the DDE Item is: .....?
?
And whatever the pattern is in these fields I just duplicate for all the other fields, right?

You now know where DAX is in the TWDde.xls. Write down its row number and column number of its last price. The column of the last price must be 13. Let us say, the row # is 15 and column # is 13.. Write it down and keep it aside.

If you have installed Metaserver correctly, (I presume you have), then, once you bring up Global server 'on-line' you should get Metaserver window popping up. Do this happen? Once you get Global server up on-line and Metaserver window pops up come back and we talk. If you want to go through this process fast and want to make your $million today itself :), then give me a call (905) 257 3554) once you have Metaserver window up.

First, you have to get the quotes from IB workstation in to TWSDde.xls.xls spread sheet supplied by IB. Call IB technical support and they will help you on phone to download TWSDde.xls from their web site and how to install and where to install it. It should be installed in "C:/JTS/excel" directory.??Once you install TWSDde.xls, ask the tech support how to start receiving quotes into this spread sheet from the workstation. Once you are successful, come back and I will tell you how to proceed.? You cannot run Metaserver?before successfully receiving?quotes into TWSDde.xls ssheet because, Metaserver gets its data from TWSDde.xls??

Thanks Scott... The question is mainly with the MetaServer Demo and what exact information?one must?put into it?for IB DDE to be linking and MetaServer Demo to be capturing the data, which then I can pass to the TS2000i GlobalServer (TradeStation)....
?
In fact, I cannot also get the TWS Excel s/s DDE to link and work with IB's DAX Futures data, but that is another question, which I asked IB... and as yet no reply whatever....
?
If anyone knows what needs to be put into the TWS Excel s/s DDE cell to display the IB's DAX Futures data, that too?would be most appreciated.
?
Regards....

You MAY...

But try an be specific as to exactley what your problem is. If this
problem is related to TS2000i (whatever that is), you might not get
to many replies...

Don't get upset. It just means your either fishing with the wrong
bait, or fishing in the wrong pond
