i am new to excel and i am having trouble conecting the spread sheet i downloaded from the forum to gruss, i get a msg saying check excel is running and it is please help,is there a step by step guide for this anywhere?

also any idea where i can get a spread sheet that i can connect to corect score markets

First, you don't need any particular spreadsheet open to connect to gruss but you do need Excel running, so,

1. Open Excel as a blank workbook(probably called Book1)
2. Boot up Gruss
3. Open a market, like a Correct Score market that you want to trade
4. Go to the 'Excel' link at the top of Gruss
5. Click 'Log current prices'. This will open a new window where you'll see a dropdown menu 'Workbook Name'
6. Choose the workbook (probably Book1) and worksheet to connect with your market. Make sure 'Enable trigerred betting' is checked if you need that funtionality.
7. Click 'OK' and voila, the prices and market details will appear in your Excel worksheet.
8. Alter refresh timing as required and create triggers etc.

Hope that helps....

thanks i wasnt sure if u could put just a blank spread sheet on with gruss,but im still having trouble conecting them,it just says cant connect to excel check excel is running,and it is

The excel workbook (book1 or whatever) it must been saved.

Another suggestion is to open first the saved workbook and after the program

If still BA can't see the excel workbook you can also try to connect it through Browse button after you
Click 'Log current prices

Make sure also you are using the latest version 1.0.64.d

What version of Excel are you using?

If you get it working and need a spreadsheet made for your specific requirements then this is a service we cannot offer. See http://gruss-software.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1954

What version of Excel are you using?

microsoft office excel version 12.0.4518.1014

by **GaryRussell** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 2:18 pm

Sorry, I should have asked what version of Office are using? ie. Office 97, 2000, 2007.

2007, is there anything that might be blocking it

by **GaryRussell** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 8:33 pm

It's definitely compatible with Excel 2007. I know of nothing that can block communication, but I have known there being a problem with Excel not being properly installed. Try re-installing office. Before you re-install office try rebooting your PC if you have not already tried this.
