help with strategy building

Post by jeeptech77 » Sun Apr 22, 2018 6:14 pm

can anyone tell me if the information in binary editor help guide is up to date?
it says a strategy file needs to be saved in word 2003-2007 i have word 2016 and cannot find word that old
im saving in xlxs format but i am constantly getting errors
i can copy and paste a working strategy and still get errors like Tables ? details failed to enable constraints. one or more rows contain values violating non null, unique, or foreign-key constraints

any advice would be appreciated

Yes the help file is up to date.

Xlsx format works. I use excel 2010 without issue.

Cell format must be Text

Do not use 'clear contents' to empty a cell as it causes issues. Use delete or backspace.

You might need to download a format converter pack from MS for older file formats.

Edit: There is a template in the BE install folders you could use as a starting point.
