There sure seem to be a lot of experts here ... and it all sounds so easy to get a tested working app that someone should be able to just code it up and post it ...... VB.Net is supposed to be a rapid prototyping and rapid app development environment .... lets see if one of the experts here actually posts working tested code in an hour or two - which is the timeframe that keeps getting implied for these types of little projects ....
Dunno about anybody else, but I sure won't be spending a couple hours helping somebody who won't help himself.
Here is a demo for making a VB.NET app. I made this simple example in about 5 minutes. <img src="http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=826169">
Hmmm .. I wonder why there were no other posters providing the example of how simple this is in VB ...... I wonder if they actually have ever even used the environment.... Anyway this is a nice posting and illustrates how easy it is to get something up and running with VB... By the way, how did you do the GIF demo: is it part of the VS IDE: If it is I haven't used it yet ....
ETLURKER, WOW, this looks very impressive and your help/demo is very much appreciated!! I have been studying the VB.NET video tutorials at http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/beginner/ and am very impressed by the capability of VB.NET; it is fun! I think your code might be of big help to me, however your demo progresses too fast for me to duplicate in VB.NET, would you mind attaching the VB.NET project code? Or can it be slowed down or paused so that i can copy it? Thanks very much herman
I posted a VB .Net sample application for IB TWS Active X API near two years ago on the Yahoo Group IB TWS forum. I imagine it's still there. Ray www.ninjatrader.com
