Sorry cant wait till month end :-)



Maybe I have a helpfull idea here (yeah, would be the first one :-)


The old Ts (4.0) was able to DDE out to EXCEL (and others) - but NOT *in* from 
there - does the new, improved and beautifull T$ 2398 do DDE **in**  aswell ???
- DDE at all ???

Wouldnt that be away to get such "streaming quotes" in TS realtime ???

PS: before (as several times before) the world will ask about "DDE and TS" - its 
in the rear of the manual (yes, you have to have one ) and in the past you have to 
have a special password from OR (or youre russian granddad) to enable the DDE 
thing.
