Hi - I'm now taking a stab at automating opening of some of my windows, such as T&S,
OptChains, Charts, etc. Questions:

* Options chain window pops open, with a valid symbol(say, IBM) in the ticker entry window,
but instead of data filling in, it remains blank, with '-1 Calls -1 Puts 0 Enabled Alerts'
showing at the bottom of the window. If I manually hit the green 'get data' arrow, sometimes
data shows up, sometimes the window only fills up with symbol names, but no actual data.
If I manually open an opts chain window from the DTNIQ bar, enter the symbol and hit
get data, it -and- the workspace opts chain window fill in as they should.

????

* With Time&Sales, is there any way to specify type of data(minute, tick, daily, etc) for each
given window? Right now, all T&S data seems to end up being the type of data I used last
time; say, all minute data if my last T&S window closed had minute data in it.
I'd like to setup some windows for tick, some for minute, some for daily and have the
Workspace Manage pop up windows with the various types of data in it.

Other than these items, the Workspace Manager seems to work well; should save tedious time
and effort for me in the future.

Ok, revised question(s):

* I'm gonna guess that due to the way T&S stores only one default for -all- T&S windows, there's not any way to have a mixture of tick, minute, daily, etc. T&S windows stored within my Workspace. Please let me know if there is...(would be nice; saves time).

* Still encountering the 'empty chain' on my option chains windows. They pretty much always come up with the symbol in the entry space/window, but with zero data being retrieved. I have to manually click on the little green 'get data' icon.

Other than the above, the workspaces are pretty slick; nice time savers.
