First time poster, long time reader here. I run TS on a Mac with Parallels (Windows 7). Works great, love it. I've recently discovered a 3rd party indicator, however, I would like to use that pulls data from an Excel spreadsheet. It uses a custom .dll, not the newer Excel functionality in TS.

I'm toying with the idea of paying a programmer to re-code the indicator using the new Excel functionality. Before I do that, however, I wanted to see if anyone has used the Excel functionality with TS running on a Mac via Parallels? I obviously don't want to pay for the coding if it is never going to work due to the Mac/Parallels thing. Thanks in advance for any feedback.
