dumping end of bar is easy.
vars:     mpos     ( 0 ),                    { marketposition }
            mypath  ( "c:\tssignals\" ),  { directory }
            path  ( "" ),                       { path to dump alerts }
            signal ("" ),                        { signal }
            mydata   ( "" );                 { signal string }

{ put this after all signals }
mpos = marketpositon;
if mpos <> mpos [1] then begin
            if mpos = 1 then
                    signal = "Buy"
            else
            if mpos = - 1 then
                    signal = "Sell"
            else
            if mpos = 0 and mpos[1] = -1 then
                    signal = "ExitShort"
            else
            if mpos = 0 and mpos[1] = 1 then
                    signal = "ExitLong";
            { build full path }
              path =mypath+numtostr( date,0 )+".txt";
              mydata = signal+","+GetSymbolName+","+NumToStr(Date,0)+","

+NumToStr(Time,0)+","+NumToStr(entryprice,3)+","+"whateveryouwant"+newline;
              { write bars to file }
              FileAppend( path, mydata);
              print ( printer, mydata );        { will send it to printer }
end;
somthing like that. easy, but i trying intrabar it's getting kinda messy.
thanks for the reference to access database, that might be the best
solution,
a vb app reading that file and printing...
