I believe the reason it no longer works in 7.9 is not because of changes in EFS but because of changes in how the spreads need to be written. A space is now required before AND after the operator.
If you run the following script on a chart of IBM + NQ #F - NQ #F the old(er) solution should still work.

function preMain() {
    setPriceStudy(false);
    setStudyTitle("LastTrade");
    setCursorLabelName("x",0);
    setCursorLabelName("y",1);
}

function main() {

    var x = getValue("Close",0,"nq #f + IBM - IBM");
    var y = close(0,sym("nq #f"));

    return new Array (x,y);
} 

I have added also the EFS2 equivalent for comparison purposes.

Irrespective with EFS2 the formula engine now takes care of all the synchronization issues so the new syntax is definitely the way to go IMHO

Thanks for that explanation about the change in the spread syntax Alexis.

So you can confirm that the work around is no longer required right?

It should no longer be required as all the synchronization is now handled by the formula engine.
