Hi,

In the previous versions of mfp, if you saved a statement it had a column with the date and time in.  In vers 7 this only has the time listed, not the date.  This creates problems when trying to input this data into a spreadsheet.

Lots of people use different bet amounts for different strategies, so they can easily assess which strategies are working and which need tweaking.  Previously you could collect data over a number of days and then sort the csv files by bet size and also date to create a list of bets for each strategy in date order.

The new statement layout doesn't allow this.  If I save a number of days csv files and then merge them I cant sort them by date as that info is only buried in the market name column.  This means inputting each days results separately, which is a lot more time consuming.

If it was possible to reinstate the date info into the time column in the statement files in a future release that would be a great help.

Thanks

Hi
This may be useful to you:
Settings > Excel > Export Account Statement to this sheet
Settings > General Options > Account Statement > Retrieve records starting from this date
Save settings

Now click the Launch Excel button

Hi Tim & Oxa

It's been over a year since Tim agreed to change this. (reverting to the date as well as the time being in a column in the statement as per version 6 statements.)

Do you have any idea when it might be implemented?

Thanks if it's possible
