You could make a script that calculates the time it takes for the text to pass by using the ticker speed, its length and the lenght of the text plus some extra for it to disappear all tking into ccount the fontsize first and then instruct to start the other data source to the ticker

Thank you sir for your reply. But it looks difficult for me because I have no experience in scripting any language or programming.

- why 2 tickers (assume each own datasource )
- why not combine 2 data sources into one (if from excel one can do that within excel ( and more) )
- does the data source consists of one element or a list of data it goes through first
- how much control do you have over the data sources
- ..............
