Event Start Time on the Watch List
Anyone have any idea how I can get the event start time on the Watch List ? When I have hundreds of footy markets up and I get watch list alerts its a pain having to relate back to Guardian to find and then confirm the start time. I can get scores etc in there via a constant alert using an SV, but as far as I can see the start time isn't available to pass to an SV, only the number of secs to start.
I haven't kept the coupon where I had the start times displayed but I think I stored the start time in a SV and displayed in on the watch list using the custom columns tab in coupon settings.sniffer66 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 9:05 amAnyone have any idea how I can get the event start time on the Watch List ?

Cheers Derek, that's exactly what I was aiming to do, I just can't see anywhere using a standard internal SV where I can grab the start time. Unless you know differently, I'll have to resort to passing it externally - which is a pain as none of my external data kicks in until the match startsDerek27 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 1:35 pmI haven't kept the coupon where I had the start times displayed but I think I stored the start time in a SV and displayed in on the watch list using the custom columns tab in coupon settings.sniffer66 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 9:05 amAnyone have any idea how I can get the event start time on the Watch List ?

I'm sure I had the start times on the watch list and then abandoned it for having a summary in Excel but I can't see where I would have got the market time. If I can think of it or remember what I've done, if indeed I had such a watch list I'll let you know.sniffer66 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 1:37 pmCheers Derek, that's exactly what I was aiming to do, I just can't see anywhere using a standard internal SV where I can grab the start time.

I think I've got it. I must have used VBA code to take the start time from the BA spreadsheet and put it in a stored variable. Then I decided my spreadsheet makes the watch list redundant and scrapped it. Perhaps make a suggestion to access the market start time natively so it can be placed in an SV.
Will do Derek, cheers for lookingDerek27 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 16, 2022 3:58 pmI think I've got it. I must have used VBA code to take the start time from the BA spreadsheet and put it in a stored variable.
