DDE COM Client v1.1.2 ===================== Introduction ------------ This is a COM component designed to allow access to DDE servers from Scripting languages, such as VBScript. It provides support for the main DDE synchronous transaction types: XTYP_REQUEST, XTYP_POKE and XTYP_EXECUTE through ad-hoc queries and conversations. It also allows for querying running servers with the XTYP_WILDCONNECT transaction type. This tool forms one part of my DDE toolkit, with the others being:- DDE Query: My original GUI based DDE query tool. DDE Command: A console app for querying DDE servers.
