Hi
I am new to Developer . . . while reviewing the documentation I came across sample code for VB that Microsoft's latest Visual Studio Community 2013 complained about. See attached message. Can we please have this documentation updated ? Thank you in advance. . mano San Jose, CA Formerly a very long time in technology with Citigroup in New York, NY/Global File Attached: iqFeed Developer 1.png (downloaded 1424 times) |

IQFeed Developer 5.1.0.5 Setup gives this incomplete and confusing message . . .
Please have the message tell me what version is installed and whether it is older or newer. Older ? Followup action etc. I did install the latest Client 5.1.1.3 from July 2014 ? Help :-) mano San Jose, CA File Attached: Wrong vers of IQFeed Client Mar 15 2015.png (downloaded 1382 times) |

Hello Manoa,
Thanks for the head's up on this. I apologize for the troubles. We have not made any protocol changes in awhile so these have gotten out of sync. We will look at this in the coming days. As to the conversion message, once the upgrade process to VS 2013 is performed, older clients would no longer be able to open the solution file. Since we need to keep the solution files available to all users, we will probably not be able to change this, but I will discuss it with management nonetheless to be sure they are aware of your concerns. Maybe we can come up with a few different installer versions, but we'll see how goes. Tim |

Why not make both available, old and a more recent version not more than 3 yrs old ? why should developers to be held back by those who want to stay with very old software/maybe no one uses it . . . does not work in the real world :-) See how many times customers download each and then make a decision to remove the clutter. Ask Apple CEO Tim Cook . . how quickly Apple customers upgrade . . and why Microsoft is being dragged down by support for legacy software . . . . Nadella is changing that. Thank you. mano San Jose, CA |

I have escalated your request to our management team, and we will certainly take a look at that option, and others, in the next developer's release.
Thanks, Tim |
