Visual basic DDE code
Hi there!
You can give my Visual basic DDE code a look, I think it will be clearer than the Excel file.
You can find it with the source code at this article:
Thanks

Can anyone explain to me how to establish a live DDE connection betwee MT4 and microsoft excel.
I would like to be able to pull live prices information from MT4 directly into excel.
The syntax for doing this with intellicharts for instance looks like this:
=fxtrek|Bid!EURUSD
It was really quite simple. I am hoping I can do the same with MT4. Help anyone?
Thanks in advance.
