How are my stocks doing?

Inspired by this iGoogle Gadget I wanted t see if i could make something similar for on my PPC,
Even the iPhone has a nice solution.

Attached is my first crack at it, in all it took about 5 to 6 hours, and I'm pretty happy with it.

future versions will include
- automatic refresh every x minutes
- faster loading (has to do with the way the exe is currently dealing with the new data)
- Some eye candy

Let me know what you think, comments are appreciated

Cheers

I have been playing with this the last year, and just thought of uploading the newer version, maybe it can help someone.

please note, it is working, but its not finished

let me know.

Hi Mr_Gee,

Congratulations, it is a good job...

If I may give some advice would be to declare the variables used within Sub's (to avoid some errors has been to declare Quantity and PriceThen in Read_Ini).

Best Regards,

Massimo

Thanks Massimo, for the next release i plan to do a redesign of the subs,
mainly because not it re-reads each stock value when adding an item
(this takes too long)

I wish I would have checked the forums before starting my own stock watcher.
