Bloomberg API Asynchronous Subscription

Has anybody had any luck with coding to the Bloomberg API in C#? I have
tracked down sufficient code to return data synchronously i.e.
subscribe a ticker and fields and return one set of results, but have
had no luck in getting asynchronous reults to fire off the data event
i.e. subscribe a ticker and fields and return results every time the
fields change.

Bloomberg do not support .net and I have been on the waiting list to
get involved in the .net beta for over two years but I wonder if
anybody has achieved any results. Any code samples or pointers to
online documentation would be greatly appreciated,

Cheers
Ali

From what I remember about this. You had to run a program that created a
managed wrapper around the BBAPI, however I believe they stated that this
left the ActiveX component at only 50% funtionality.

I wouldn't mind trying aximp.exe and experimenting. How can I get a copy of
bbapi.dll? Is it free or do I need to purchase a subscription?

Currently I am using X:Ignite web services for Market Data. It allows
perfect integration with C#, but I haven't tried any real-time,
streaming-type apps using their data.

ok,
