> it doesn't matter. My account even doesn't work with version 857 anymore. There is something else going on. Although I can show IB's data are coming in (using the program VB_API_Sample.exe) they must have changed something in the format of the data so that Amibroker can no longer read it.  Weird thing is that for some accounts it works and others it doesn't.
