Re: DDE

Hi Frans,
I do not want to disappoint you, but I have spend a massive amount of hours in the past in an attempt to try to make it work.. and failed.
In the end I resorted to RTF, HTML, CVS and an unfinished project to write native XLS files. The latter was working quite neatly, but as office versions went to 2003, 2007and 2010 versions, I stopped bothering as sooner or later I will loose compatibilitiy.
My suggestion: don't use DDE. Use HTML or CVS instead. It has its limitations, but it will save you from beating up your computer and banging your head against the wall.
Regards,
Jack

      Dear Members



I Want to know if there is anyone that can be of assistance.



I want to use the DDuse and DDexc in an application.



In the tutorials and the postings on this forum there are no in depth examples of using the events. (I know that Dimitris is not a "fan" of these functions)



Is there a place that you know of where I can get the keywords. In the manual the SELECT statement are used and it is working fine. The problem is when I for example want to write something to a cell, copy, delete etc. I have tried  everything namely PUT, LET. Cell(1,1).value,Cell(Rc1C1) and many more and it is not working.



This is only one example. 



So is there a reference where I can get the keywords? It seems to me that it differs from one program language to another or am I missing something?



Kind regards.



Frans
