He actually has two books now but I'm not quite sure of the price of the
latest. Art's books are VERY helpful.
Here's detailed info on both of Art's books, plus info on a third book:
The first book, "Using Easy Language," is for the beginner to intermediate
level programmer. It starts with the very basic and necessary rules and
progresses to more complex and involved studies and systems. Included with
the book is a diskette with all the studies and systems described
throughtout
the book.
The second book deals with just the new Easy Language Text and Drawing
Functions of TradeStation 4.0 and is for the more experienced EL
programmer.
Using Easy Language $45.00 plus $5.00 S&H
Easy Language Features of TS 4.0 $35.00 plus $3.00 S&H

Configuration file"? See chapter 62.

error messages, or just wondered "How do I ..?" then this is the book for
you. If you ever tried to get OMEGA tech support on the phone on Saturday
afternoon you will know why we put this book together. We have had many
clients come up with the same head scratchers over the years. Now you can
have the answers once and for all without waiting on hold for someone else
to

subjects are covered. How To instructions and examples that are illustrated
in a NOT FOR DUMMIES way.
