RE: Reading data files into TS

Hashnums allows you to read and write CSV files.
It reads or writes the data from/to structured objects.
This works with current 16 Bit Tradestations.

The problem previously with DJ TS5 was that it was a 32 Bit product.
The old HASHNUMS catered for the Current OMEGA Tradestation 
that is a 16 Bit product.

There is a Beta 32 Bit Hashnums for 32 Bit Tradestations
that will work with DJ TS5. Qtrade are really wating for the
release of TS5 until HASHNUMS 32 is released, as Omega
might change the current version of the TS5 Pre-Release
at the last minute.
The 32 bit version is acompatable but more powerfull product.

QLSNUMS32 is also available in beta form.

Both these products provide an object server that allows
data to be shared amongst many applications, ie Excel,
Visual C++ and Visual Basic programs.

Both programs provide a set of examples to allow interfacing
to other languages.

If your are interested you can mail:

or visit their WEB site for other product details:

Kim,

I was following the Hashnums conversation, and I have a query on a separate 
issue.

Can any of these products read a data file as input ?
It seems that TS only allows output to a file.

I run TS4 and DJ TS5, which does not have a 64K limit.
When I asked the Hashnums people if their product would run on my DJ TS5, 
they said no.  (it was some time ago, I cant remember exactly what they 
said).   This put me off getting it.

Also, have you found it easy to get TS talking to VB and back again.  I 
have written one VB program to manipulate tick data, and found it a bit of 
a labour.  I am fearful that an interface is too complex to attempt, and 
particularly to thoroughly test.   Do they give good sample code with 
Hasnums.

Thanks
Peter
