Data Collection Script - MQL4 to MQL5

New comment
 
Hello,
I had a very helpful member (credit goes to heelflip43) from the MQL4 forums modify a lousy data collection script I found laying around. He did a great job and I think its now a very useful data collection tool. It continuously writes multiply currencies and multiple frequencies to .csv files, updating all the files every 30 seconds I believe. 

Id like to take this script to the next level and write the data to SQL server 2008 instead of text files.
I found this guide:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/MetatraderDLL.aspx

It would require me to use Metatrader 5 and in turn MQL5. Unfortunately, I have no programming knowledge in MQL4 or 5 whatsoever. 

Can a kind soul please rewrite this relatively small script in MQL5 so that I can implement the SQL solution. That I can learn to do since I'm familiar with c# and .net and will figure it out sooner or later. If you're feeling extra kind and have the know-how, feel free to implement the SQL solution directly into it   :)   (probably just a few lines of code since the writing logic is already there) Post it here and I'm sure many will find it a useful tool as well. 

Thanks for your time.

There is only one peer reviewed article concerning SQL integration with Metatrader by Yuriv Zaytsev written almost 8 years back and which was written originally in Russian and automatically translated to English using a translator. The example is very hard to execute, and requires creating a specific database, with specific login credentials...

Thanks but I'm not looking to pay for this. I thought someone might do it for free, like the original mq4 attached. I can deal with it writing to text files but I also thought this could be useful to others and not just myself. I'll have a dedicated server upfor this so it will run uninterrupted for months/years starting monday. Id be willing to give the coder the up-to-the-current-date collection of data anytime they ask for free for their help.
