Export the wathlist data into csv file 3. Close the watch list. I can use "WatchList.exe test.wat" to open a watchlist of "test", but that is all I can do so far. How to export the data and close the watchlist? Thanks,

You would need to us a windows macro utility if you wanted to script the functions you mention. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

Is it based on DDE spreadsheet ? How can I get my spreadsheet to list 1300 symbols? Now I can only list 500 symbols...thanks!

You may contact sales at 1-800-475-4755 and they should be able to give more complete data on this including pricing. Edited by DTN_Tim Walter on Apr 25, 2006 at 03:56 PM
