Backtesting Questions from a newb

Its usual to put a default value for each extern and then you can put a range of values into the columns next to the initial extern on the Input tab of Optimization Properties before a back-test run
If you check the Optimization box, the different results will show in the Optimization tab, with n rows to show the number of permutaions of values you put in to the Input values
BTW - how is Julius these days :)
Good Luck

I'm just getting into testing some of my first EAs. Some of them have external variables that require user input. I was wondering if there was a way to have the backtesting program randomly insert variables into the external variables to greatly reduce the deployment time on the EAs. If I have to sit there and punch it in by hand....it could take forever!
Also, I know that EAs can communicate with external dlls, but to be honest, I don't know the first thing about developing or configuring dlls, are there any good tutorials out there to get my feet wet with dlls? Thanks!
