Hello faustf, thanks for your post.

We recommend OIF files be automatically placed into the Incoming folder by a script rather than manually copy/pasting the file. This is because manual copy/pasting the file can sometimes be ignored by the way Windows handles files. I attached a sample script to reference how to do this through an addon that takes OIF files from one directory and places them into the Incoming folder.

Please let me know if you have any questions on this material.

thankz for reply and for example , i dont wanna use C# , because for write a simple tex i must write so much , i test it with Autoit but unfortunally not work , but now i test with perl and cmd script
this is my code in autoit (autoit is basike like similar to visualbasic script )

#include <FileConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPIFiles.au3>


Global $sPath="C:\Users\stefano\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\incoming\oif1.txt"
Global $sData="PLACE;<Sim101>;<6E 03-21>;<SELL>;<1>;<MARKET>"

FileWrite($file, $sDataWrite & @CRLF)

FileWrite($file, $sDataWrite)

FileClose($file)
EndFunc ;==>_True_write_File

the syntax is correct ? PLACE;<Sim101>;<6E 03-21>;<SELL>;<1>;<MARKET>"
or i must write in this mode ? PLACE;Sim101;6E 03-21;SELL;1;MARKET ????

Do not include the angle brackets, those are syntax characters used
to define the specification -- not actual input characters.

Also, every semi-colon is important -- these are field delimiters and
must still be included, even if the field is empty.

Exact specifications for OIF are here.
