I don't think the DDE client (The visual basic or Excel program) has the ability to connect to multi MetaTrader instances. Because the idea behind the DDE is connecting to the server by it's exe name. Maybe if we change the name of the MeteTrader.exe it works, I didn’t try!
But, if we create our own DDE server- it's an easy task for a c++ guru- it will be possible.
This is the algorism:
Step1: We build a DDE server (DLL) which assign a unique id for every MetaTrader instance (the id maybe the account number or anything unique).
Step2: Making a visual basic DDE client which able to connect to multi DDE servers.
Step3: The visual basic program will store the data in an Excel sheet.
Step4: We build another DLL to restore the already saved data.
But this require TIME
