Post From: Excel RTD/DDE Support Missing in Current Sierra Chart Version

I am trying to link Sierra Chart quote data directly into Excel using RTD or DDE. The documentation mentions RTD support, but in my current version there is no “Enable RTD Server” option anywhere in Global Settings → General Settings or any other menu. Excel formulas like =RTD("SierraChartRTD",,"ES","Bid") only return #N/A.

Can you confirm whether RTD or DDE is still supported in the current Sierra Chart version, and if so, where the setting is located? If it has been removed, what is the recommended method to feed live quote data into Excel?

Thank you.
