Problem solved!
IB finally discovered that I was on an old subscription. Everything worked after it was updated. It was strange that it was only this morning that I began getting a message saying"requested market data  is not subscribed". Thank you everybody who helped and showed concern. Lloyd

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
