Yes MetaServer pops up... and I have the row and column # from
Excel.....?get the infor from that particular row for the symbol I am
collecting
?
In MS Symbol name I put in: DAX
in DDE put in: your user name that is in the TWSDDE.xls
?
In Trade/Volume, Trade Record is ticked, and DDE Topic is:?tik ....
?and the DDE Item is: id(plus number displayed in your xls for that
particular symbol)?last, eg. for me, it is: id29?last
?
And whatever the pattern is in these fields I just duplicate for all the
other fields, right? eg. id29?LastSize for Inc. Volume and the GlobalServer
does the rest..... and so on
?
?

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
