Default how to roll/scroll/log (??) real-time data ?


You need to use the ActiveWorkBook.SetLinkOnData method to cause Excel
to automatically run a subroutine every time the data from the DDE
Link is updated by the DDE Server.
The subroutine would simply read the Value property of the cell
containing the DDE Link and write it to the bottom of a column
somewhere else in the worksheet.
For an example, visit:

In cell A1 I have a DDE-link to a real-time data source.
Works fine, however instead of having this one cell
update each time the value changes, I'd like to "log"
(roll? scroll? I don't know how to call this) the
previous data to cell A2 etc., in time building column A
with all past values that occurred.
Stock market programs do this effortlessly (like when
building "time and sales" sheets) but I just cannot
figure it out. Should be some standard command I'd say,
or does this require high-end programming? Thanks!!
