Description
This is an ActiveX DLL that can be used with the Excel RTD function. It used the Order2Go COM API to log into an account and makes various topics in the dealing rates window available through RTD.

Usage
The DLL should be saved locally, such as to C:\WINDOWS\System32. It should then be registered. To do this:
  1. Click Start > Run...
  2. Type in "regsvr32 "
  3. Type in the exact location of the DLL. So you will have something like : regsvr32 C:\WINDOWS\system32\FXCMRTD.dll
  4. Click enter and you should get a message that the DLL was registered successfully.
You can then open Excel and use the RTD function, which is used in the form:
=RTD("FXCMRTD.RTDFunctions",,Currency, Topic, Username, Password, Connection)
*Please note the second parameter is intentionally left blank.

The connection would be "Demo" or "Real", depending on the type of account you would like to get the information from.

Topics can be any of:
- Bid
- Ask
- High
- Low
- IntrS
- IntrB
- ContractSize
- Digits
- Time

I followed your instructions and I can't register fxcmrtd.dll. Does it work with windows vista? Actually I got a message that C:\windows\system32\fxcmrtd.dll was loaded but the call to DIIRegisterServer failed with error code 0x80004005

The DLL has not been tested on Windows Vista or with Excel 2007 so it's compatibility cannot be assured at present.

At the moment, we do not have this.
But the source code for the VB6 version is posted and you are able to use that to try port it across to .NET.

Please try with the following parameters in the RTD function:

=RTD("FXCMRTD.RTDFunctions", , "EUR/USD", "Bid", "username", "password", "Demo")
