how do i use dde with visual basic?

[ndingle]

I want to use dde with a visual basic application. The VB app will be both a server and client to Lookout.

You can use the 'DDE Link' and 'DDE Table' objects in Lookout for this. Also all the Control Objects (Pots, Switches, etc.) can be used with DDE.

Lookout's Online help has examples showing DDE communication with Excel. You would use the same Application, Topic, and Item names in VB.

Hope this helps.

Rgds,

Khalid 🙂
