XLTrader Office 2007
Hello Everyone,
Today I released two new versions of the Add-ins. One version v1.03 is for Office 2007 and resolves some plotting and other incompatibility issues. I have a new Office 2007 specific help page located at http://www.technical-analysis-addins.com/office2007/index.htm. The other version v1.021 is for all other Excel incarnations.
The only major change included in v1.021 is that I added automatic plotting to XLEHLERS and XLINDICATORS when selected with a chartsheet visible. You no longer need to be on the Data sheet to use those add-ins and automtic plotting makes them much easier to work with. You no longer need to add the series to the chart after they've been created since its done for you (great with things like the ribbon function which has 42 separate series). If you use XLINDICATORS or XLEHLERS you should download the latest version otherwise skip it.
If you are using Office 2007 make sure you get the service pack (1) offered by Microsoft. Installing it greatly improved the performance on my machine. Office 2007 definitely takes some getting used to and I have mixed opinions about it but... it is the future. The next major release of the add-ins v2.0 will be designed from the ground up for Office 2007 including use of the new file formats and a new Ribbon based user interface. I cannot yet say when that will be available or what other features it will have. I'm open to your suggestions though.
Regards
