Query : I used to use AdfinXRtLib (Eikon) in my VBA and would like to have a similar library while using Workspace. Since I now have the Adfin Analytics tab in my workspace Excel, i would like to use the Workspace.AdxRtList. However I have an issue caling the library

(oRtList As WorkspaceRtLib.AdxRtList).

Could you provide me with a documentation?


Provided this link to client :  Migrating COM API calls to Python, where you can locate the functionalities of AdxRtList library.

Link:  https://developers.lseg.com/en/article-catalog/article/migrating-com-api-calls-to-python

Follow up : The documentation you have sent does not help much since I’m using VBA not Python.

We actually use Eikon AdxRtList for RT-Requests in VBA and want to migrate the VBA code to Workspace.

Thank you so much and looking forward on your response.

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    I understand that AdfinXRtLib is a part of the Eikon COM library which has been removed from the LSEG Workspace. Therefore, you can't use it in the LSEG Workspace Excel anymore.

    I'm not certain what WorkspaceRtLib refers to. Please reach out to the Workspace Excel support team directly to confirm this.

  • Hi @MRCHDLM

    I would suggest you refer to the Upgrading to Workspace section within the developer portal. On the left, you should see a menu link for Adfin Analytics. This should provide some context and details around the Adfin dlls within Workspace.

    Hope this helps.

  • Hello @nick.zincone I already advised client and also provided the Link and the PDF. However, client has a follow up on this. Kindly need your assistance on this please.

    As per client :  I can’t find the dll files mentioned in the documentation you’ve sent me.

  • Hi @MRCHDLM

    It might be helpful if the client provides the <version> they have. For example, on my machine is was initially 6.20243.8.14, which is apparently old and I was instructed to delete the Adfin folder and restart excel a couple of times - apparently this forces a reload of the latest Adfin module. This is what my Adfin folder looks like now:

    Have the client try that - if that doesn't help, I would suggest they contact the Helpdesk within Workspace F1 (Help & Support) and they can chat live to get proper direction. Hope this helps.
