"Event" question

[gregla]

Thanks. I'm now using 1.57 and dowloaded the file, but it's not really doing what I expected.

Firstly, I expected 2 files. One from the win market that sets the value, and the for the FC market which reads it in.

I'll give you screenshots of what I've got anyway.

Can you see anything wrong with it?

Ah I see, I didn't realise that you were trying to pass a SV between the two markets, I thought you just had a file that worked on the win market but not the F/C

I seem to remember coming across this once or twice before and found for some reason BF have put the Greyhound F/C market outside the event, so its not possible to pass a SV between the two - as its technically in a different Event

Sorry, probably didn't explain myself properly!

OK, that's bad news. Is there any other workaround, or any future possiblity of Betfair and BA coming together to fix this?

It needs to be changed at BF's end, there's nothing BA can do.
If they just put the F/C markets in the same Event that would solve the problem (its the only instance I've come across in ANY sport/market where they have one of the markets outside the Event)

No worries Dallas, thanks for your help mate - always appreciated.
