Sunday 28/1/18

Eight horses 'Generally available odds' are being shown as 'Top 2 Finish' and the 'Decimal' for these is shown as a #VALUE! error

All Lingfield decimal prices are 33; Fairyhouse as 74. No fractional odds for either.

Just occasionally these strange days crop up :(

It sounds like there are occasional changes the format / layout of the data in the 3rd party website :(

Kind regards,

Annoying, clearly.

Again today, all Chelmsford runners showing as 12; Wolverhampton as 62

Hi RoB,

I had a quick look and I saw the problem that you described.

Fortunately, it looks like it is has started working again now.

Kind regards,

Gavin

One of those malfunctioning days again.

All blank in the fractional odds; repeated decimals for each of the four meetings.

It seems nobody really uses this apart from me. Its a super little facility which I use as a simple once only snapshot of best morning prices.

Probably be working fine again tomorrow...or maybe not. Who knows!

Sorry to hear that RoB. It looks like the two forum users (nig299 and Cym27) who worked on the code in the spreadsheet might not currently be available for coding projects, but I am not sure. In the past they have both done a bit of work for users in the Find A Developer section of the Cymatic forum.

Kind regards,

Gavin

This facility hasn't been working for quite a few days now.

As there has been a change of layout to Oddschecker, it looks unusable.

That's a shame, I think the creators of the spreadsheet put quite a lot effort into creating it. Perhaps someone will eventually come forward and resurrect it.

Kind regards,

Gavin
