Will it be possible to paste DDE links into the new spreadsheet functionality ?

DDE is widely used in finance and an implementation would allow SC chart to interface with dozens of other apps.


Ideally we could specify Data/Trade Service settings to receive DDE quotes into a UART buffer which would write into a SCID (presume at the chart update frequency**.)

I presume you have seen something similar on multiple-other-charting-software where each trade value can be assigned from a DDE source ?

edit: Right now SC has a 40ms minimal chart update frequency. Seeing as 1000/40=25 then is it not reasonable to expect 25 intervals of real resolution per second at the tick level? I saw on another thread that you have some new code regarding milliseconds, so I don't know if this is relevant, but if it is then I think a 40ms quantization "compromise" is workable.
