Re: Re : [amibroker] DDE Plugin and Bloomberg Pro

Hi,
I still await some response on this. 

In the meanwhile I install Amibroker on the same machine as 
Bloomberg, and set up the Universal DDE plugin precisely as 
documented in help. I also set up the RT database with Bloomberg 
tickers of a few symbols. On connencting, the plugin status goes 
into "WAIT" mode -yellow - and stays that way. I get no feeds.

Help also speaks of "enabling' Bloomberg for DDE. How do i do this? 
I assume BLB's default state is DDE enabled since it allows for DDE 
feeds into Excel w/o having to do anything more. 

Is there something I else I have to do, something I've done wrong?
Any help will be greately appreciated.

best regards,
Kazaan
