Re: [amibroker] Re: Programmatically set Current ticker?

[Keith McCombs <kmccombs@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mike --
That's probably what I need.  I'm going to have to come up to speed a bit on jscipt first though.  Right now, I'm getting syntax error on the AX = ... line below:

AB = CreateObject("Broker.Application");
EnableScript( "jscript" );
AX = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");
  // Editor: Error 30. Syntax error

I'm guessing that there is a M$ something that I have to install to fix it.

I'm also having problems understanding "AmiBroker's OLE Automation Object Model" in the AB Users Manual.  Is there a "for Dummies" version available somewhere?

Thanks for your help.

From _javascript_:

var ab = new ActiveXObject("Broker.Application");

ab.LoadDatabase(...);
ab.ActiveDocument.Name = "ORCL";

If there is no active document (i.e. no open charts) then you will get an exception. Haven't gotten around to looking into how to set the active document when none present.
