== Cloning Data Sources ==
<div style="background-color: #ffc0cb;">'''This functionality is supported for Universal DDE data source only. Please do not clone any other data provider.'''</div>
To use a data source with different sets of settings it must be cloned. Cloning creates a virtual copy of the data source with modified parameters.  For instance, to receive data from several DDE data vendors one needs to have several DDE templates.  
In this case for every DDE data feed a unique data source must be created. If there are two DDE data feeds, Universal DDE and Universal DDE 2 must be created and a DDE template selected for each.
<br>To enable ability to clone a data source:
# Go to Windows Registry Editor.
# Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\TS Support\your MultiCharts version\QuoteManager
# Create a new DWORD value named MC-13118.
# Set it to 1 in decimal system.
# To disable the option set it to 0.
# Restart the QuoteManager to have the option enabled.
<br>To clone a data source:
# Open '''QuoteManager''' window
