<< First, with respect to Omega's Server API - I purchased this and it is
 not, as one might expect, a collection of canned procedures or functions
 which you can call to retrieve data from the database.

Canned , certainly not, I agree.
You need to code all of this from wht they provid,and I never told tat it
could be a piece of cake.

<<
  It is a specification of DDE "conversations" which can be established to do
 this.  Unfortunately, the "spec" looks like a document which was written
 for internal use only;  it is grossly incomplete and seems to assume
 knowledge of matters and terminology NOT addressed within the spec
 itself.
>>
Mhhh, I'm not a specialist, but we had devised to use this API to make and
autmatic tick correction for realtime datafeed.
Knowing that this feature should be available in a next Ts version, we gave up
with this project.

 This is a problem which I have been fighting for years (looking for a
 way to conveniently archive intraday data in ASCII form).  What I have
 devised is the following:  I have created an "archive" page (or
 "workspace") containing a small chart for each symbol to be saved.  Each
 chart then contains an "indicator" which does nothing but write the
 desired data to an ASCII file (a different file name, of course, for
 each chart).  I then open this workspace once every three days to save
 three-days worth of data.

Of course, this is the easiest solution.
