I have been trying to use this functionality but I do not understand how to save multiple sheets from the same spreadsheet. It seems that the same file Data\spreadsheetname.tsv is overwritten every time a sheet is being saved. Is there any way to save sheets to separate files? |

There is not support for saving multiple Sheets as text. You would need to use a separate named Spreadsheet file for each sheet you want to save.

Hi SC, I set the "periodically save sheet as text" to 1 minute and it opens in excel. However, it does not save every minute. I get this error: Error saving spreadsheet. Failed to create the file.

When you open the file in Excel, it is being locked by Excel. The fix is to either close Excel or do File Save As and use the XLSX file type. Another option is to open it with Notepad++, as it will not create a write lock on the file. |

In regards to post #37, the file is being locked by Excel preventing Sierra Chart from writing it and we do not have a solution for that

Here is how I have done it without problems: Open a blank file in Excel. Go to the "Data" tab and there click "Get Data" in the Ribbon. Select "From File > From CSV/Text". Now a file manager will open. Navigate to the location of the tsv file. You will not be able to see it, so in the bottom right corner, instead of "Text Files" select "All Files". Now select the tsv file and it will import. From there it gets more complex. You'll have to adjust for the column headings and formatting but I have no problems with the file being locked. It updates regularly. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2021-01-18 14:26:07

fyi, I have a sc-excel integration in progress. It currently supports basic level 1 realtime data via RTD. More specifically you can send Ask, Bid Last and SG live data to excel. See image with notes. It's a work in progress but if anyone is interested in beta-testing it please send an email to support@trade29.com |
