Did you copy all the files and setting across from your old PC to your new one, or did you set BA up from scratch? It could be an error in your guardian column set-up rather than the .baf file?

This was a fresh install of betangel the only things copied from my old pc were the .Baf and some screeen settings ..I have done this method many times always worked .The reason why i have not copied all the files over is because the old betangel install has a display issue ..and if i copy over the old version the display issue is also copied over..
Thats the reason why i did a fresh install ..The baf is working just it is not displaying the winner correctly .i dont understand why?

What is the name and level of the stored value you are displaying in Guardian? Have you checked the level you are looking up is correct? eg market vs selection

The stored value are several but they have not changed? why should it work on my old pc but not the new one?..I have it to play a sound when it wins i did have to change the dir to point to the new sound file... there are no more settings in the baf file that need to be changed ? .. All the other settings are working just the winner loser is always saying LOSER.. Why should it not work ? a stored value is a stored value if its on my new pc or my old one? it uses store value as a text, 'the current selection' 'a selection win status' why should they they not work?.The list layout is ok and also the custom column are all ticked to display the correct settings?
Thank you for advice

Let's lots of things it could be. Best guess is you've made a mistake in the Guardian custom columns so it's displaying the wrong stored value or level.

What stored value are you expecting to show WINNER when the fav wins and what level is it stored at? What stored value and level are you showing in the relevant Guardian custom column?

The settings are in the attachment ,
Result column should display Winner/Loser is from winning fav market order..
All the other columns work ..
