What next?
« on: 05 Oct 2013, 10:21 »
I want to create a trigger to load all UK & GB markets greater than $20,000 at 11am on Race Day. This is easier enough.

Next I want to connect to an Excel sheets and load ALL markets.
It have ran a couple of tests and not all markets appear. Any idea why?

Any considerations I should ponder?

Once they are loaded I will close MFPro and run a macro to scrape all the names and prices for later use in another session and another profile.

Now you may be asking why not just use a remember trigger. Well it's to do with scratchings. If there are any withdrawals I need to know. So I can identify the true steamer and drifter at jump time.

All theory. I use a similar method in Australia but can't find a good UK site to scrape prepost prices from easily.

Hi londolozi
Opening all GB and IRE racing markets at one time and connecting them all to Excel will be an enormous load on the system. If you are going to do that, it will be better to do them in batches according to start time.

If you are wanting to identify markets where there are withdrawn runners, why not simply use the condition:
markets number of withdrawn runners is greater than 0
or better still use the market locator property:
markets number of withdrawn runners is greater than 0
