Are you sending attached orders? If you are, the Trade Management may be overwriting it.

Here is my order code...


  s_SCNewOrder order;
  
  order.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_MARKET;
  order.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GOOD_TILL_CANCELED;
  order.TradeAccount = "Sim1";
  order.Symbol = "EURUSD";
  order.OrderQuantity = 1000;  

  order.Stop1Price = ask - (100 * tick);
  order.Target1Price = ask + (100 * tick)  
  
  order.TextTag.Format("Buy Order %u", count);

  sc.BuyOrder(order);

I did what you suggested and made the code like this..


  sc.TradeWindowConfigFileName = SCString("");

  s_SCNewOrder order;
  
  order.OrderType = SCT_ORDERTYPE_MARKET;
  order.TimeInForce = SCT_TIF_GOOD_TILL_CANCELED;
  order.TradeAccount = "Sim1";
  order.Symbol = "EURUSD";
  order.OrderQuantity = 1000;  

  //order.AttachedOrderConfiguration = 0; // error C2039: 'AttachedOrderConfiguration': is not a member of 's_SCNewOrder'
  
  order.TextTag.Format("Buy Order %u", count);

  sc.BuyOrder(order);

But still no text tag with the value set... I'm looking in the Trade Orders Window to see if its set and the code also loops through all orders and prints the text tag but they are all empty string values.
