I've updated the vbscript part based on my suggest below to check if
NinjaTrader has already processed the previous passentry.txt file
(i.e. if it does not exist in the NT directory). Just replace the
vbscript part in the code with the following code:
<%
filechanged=AFL("fileischanged")
if filechanged then
Set ofs = CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject")
if ofs.FileExists("C:\whateverpathyouwant\passentry.txt") then
MsgBox "Passentry.txt file exists in NT directory. New file not
copied."
else
ofs.CopyFile "C:\whateverpathyouwant\passentry.txt", "C:\ninjatrader\"
set ofs = nothing
End if
End if
%>
Regards,
HB
