Hello pgabriel,

Thank you for your post.

Please provide me with an image of the code window showing this error so that I may further advise.

To take a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screen shot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CRTL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and attach the file to your next response.

Hello pgabriel,

Please take the following steps:

• Right click in the code window and select References.
• In the references menu, select the existing reference to 'NinjaTrader.dll', then press delete.
• Next, press the Add button to load a window where you will select the file to reference. The file you need to add a reference to will exist at the following path: C:\Documents and Settings\Paul Gabriel\My Documents\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\NinjaTrader.dll
• After adding the reference please recompile.

There is no Ninja Trader.DLL...see attached for list

Hi pgabriel,

I think that the NinjaTrader.dll reference would be one of the last two in that list. You will need to expand the window to determine which of the two it is.

I get You may not reference "Custom DLL when I try to reference it.....

Hi pgabriel,

I notice that the file referenced in the error message is actually 'jtNinjaTrader.dll'. So, this looks to be a missing component of a custom assembly.

Does the JT portion of this ring any bells with you?

I used Jurik indicators at one time...could this be J(urik) T...?

[NinjaTrader_Kyle]

Hi pgabriel,

That may be. When you installed version 7, did you migrate settings over from version 6.5?

[pgabriel]

I dont recall...I can reinstall with out migrating...? How do I do this...?

Hi pgabriel,

Please take the following steps:

1. Close all running applications.
2. Then from the Start menu select --> Control Panel --> Add and Remove Programs.
3. From Add and Remove Programs select NinjaTrader 7 and click Remove.
4. Then manually delete the folder "NinjaTrader 7" located under Start --> My Documents.
5. Delete any NinjaTrader installation files. This can be done by going to Start --> My Computer --> Search button --> search for (NinjaTrader*) --> select Local C Disk and then press search.
6. Then you will need to clear your internet browser cache and history. You will clear this from within your internet browser (with IE, Tools-->Options, delete cookies and files, clear history).
7. Reboot your machine.
8. Once these steps are completed, download NT7 from the link below:

When starting NinjaTrader 7 for the first time, you will be prompted to migrate your settings. Please select 'No' on this prompt.
