Q RE Using excel to submit early bets and reopen later.

[aubweaver]

Hi, I was trying out something today where I submitted bets on 'x' amount of races, early in the day, with the unmatched bets continuing into 'In Play', the races auto loaded and submitted the bets as planned. When I returned later and reopened the sheets to view the outcome with the intention of watching the races in play. They reloaded and naturally resubmitted all the bets!!! Is there a way around this?
I didn't use the 'IP' Trigger Mod' thinking the bet ref would still be active but I guess new sheet ...new setup..?
Many Thanks,
Peter

It's not designed to work like that. If you didn't use the -IP modifier then the bets would have been cancelled at the off, not carried in play. It would have been better to use the -IP modifier and after it had placed all the bets, selected "Log prices" from the Excel menu to turn off the link to Excel so it couldn't trigger further bets when you changed markets.

Thanks for your quick reply. Now I know what the situation is I'll work around it.
Cheers,
