Post From: Switching from Sim to Live Account in a New Instance

Currently trading with 1st instance permanently on a Live account and placing orders on Sub Instances toggling between Sim and Live. When switching Sim to Live this eliminates delay due to logging account onto broker. Switching the Sub Instance from Live to Sim automatically picks up the Sim Account number in Trade Window and on every chart in that Sub Instance. However switching the Sub Instance from Sim to Live does not change the account number in Trade Window on the Sub Instance, so of course the order is not relayed to the broker. The live account has to be manually set in Trade Window on the Sub Instance each time the Sim / Live switch is made. This is an issue because each Sub Instance has multiple charts and I need to see open positions on each chart. Only one of the charts has a Trade Window permanently open so for the other charts I am opening a Trade Window/changing account number/closing Trade window each time the switch from Sim to Live is made. Hopefully you understand my situation from the above description. I could handle the situation in ACSIL if sc.SelectedTradeAccount was made read/write rather than read only. Do you see another way round the problem? Please advise SCv 1439 Broker TransAct
