codersguru,
thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Yes, the code I have now uses OpenFile, FileWrite, etc. and saves the file in

MetaTrader 4\experts\files\<mysubdirectoryname>\<myfilename>. csv.

I am only familiar with DDE with respect to the sample spreadsheet that comes with MT4. I am not familiar with API. Could you steer me in the right direction on this?

How does one go about making suggestions to MetaQuotes about such enhancements?

When a new build of MT4 is released, how does one find out what the changes are to that build?

Is there an online source that describes the improvements and fixes for each build?

Is this forum owned by MetaQuotes? If not, what is the relationship between this forum and MetaQuotes?

Cheers.

WRR
