    Sterling Trader DDE Quotes into Excel, how?

    hi there and thanks for getting back to me, when i install excel it does not give an option for installing 64bit or 32bit. There is nothing mentioned on the case about versions, so i assume this must be a 32bit version of excel. But im running windows 7 in 64bit so maybe i need to uninstall...

    Sterling Trader DDE Quotes into Excel, how?

    just got off the phone to sterling and they say I should have an 'add in' tab on my excel menu. They can't help any further but say it may be because Im running a windows and excel 64bit environment, and it needs to be excel 32 bit in in order to work. Does this sound right?, If so how...

    ok forget 10min example as i can go back and check myself. But what about limit order?, will it work the same way as opening order in that i get a better fill if it opens higher?
