Question concerning ASK BID shown in a Label or Button

[John]

Hi all,

I'm sitting here in the frosty Germany with a few friends and we're doing a little brainstorming about the most suitable way how to display current ASK and BID Quotes of a certain instrument at custom controls on a userform.
We have created two buttons, where the one is intended to receive the Buy Prices and the other one the Sell prices.

Status Quo:

Once the form is initiated it grabs the recent price from the market. That's ok so far.
What doesnt work is the auto-update of the prices. So the issue we have to deal is how we could achieve a it that the changing prices will be shown at the controls.

I hope someone of the mql4 code gurus could assist to find a proper solution for our problem

Greetings to the whole MT4 community

Thank's in advance for your assistance

fwiw -

Terminal supports DDE I/F. A site search for "DDE" is here

beyond that, code can #import all manner of Win dll's etc. A site search for "#import" is here
