dummy question for the day...

["Richard Harper" <rdharper@xxxx>]

To all;
 
Trying to get an alert to work during 
autoanalysis/scanning.
 
The scanning works correctly, giving buy/sell as 
expected.  
 
Why can I not just add this code, after the 
buy/sell definition line, and expect the alert to occur?
 
AlertIf(Sell,<FONT 
color=#ff00ff>"SOUND C:\\Windows\\Media\\Ding.wav",<FONT 
color=#ff00ff>"Audio alert",<FONT face="Courier New" 
color=#ff00ff>2);
 
The result is no change in behavior,  meaning the 
buy/sell scan continues to work, but no sound alert.  
 Nothing.  Nada.
 
If verfied pathing.  Sound works correctly.  I 
should note I can not get any kind of alerts to work from autoanalysis, other 
than the buy/sell signals themselves.
 
Thanks for any clues/ideas/checks.
 
Richard
