i know exactly how that is, i rigged up 2 ScanGauge II's (mine and my dads) to display at the same time in his PT Cruiser(thanks to a cat5e cable and splitter). where as i have my UltraGauge and a data logger rigged up in my Jeep, thanks to an OBD 2 splitter.
what i was hoping for was a way to write a bit of VBA to display my instant and average on my netbook screen and using it as a economy gauge as i drive along.[/QUOTE]
you probably can, just be sure both take into account your fuel consumption. if you have it only averaging the instant MPG #'s it won't total correctly because of the fluctuating rate of fuel consumption.
