tmc,
Thanks, I'll look into that although I'm getting the eminis. Sorry,I guess I wasn't very clear. I'm waiting on a response from AB support. IB had no ideas. I think I've got the right symbols(EUR.USD-IDEALPRO-CASH) but I get a message saying "invalid symbol". I do have the latest plugin module for IB. Thanks again for the ideas, Lloyd
