[amibroker] Re: Excel DDE Link



PureBytes Links

Trading Reference Links

Hi Dingo, I think I can use IB's DDE link to get price data for US 
equities and options  to Excel 2007. I'll know by this weekend. 
Therefore at this time using ole to get prices from AB to excel is 
only of intellectual curiosity vs necessity. If you have the time, I 
would love to see how it is done. TIA
