I use one DDE call to run a template in Word. It works in 4.03 but fails (nothing happens in 4.1). Could you test this please?



time=time() + 10 ;* Loop for 10 seconds

loop 

hWord=FindWindow('OpusApp':\00\, '')

			until hWord or time() ] time repeat

			

			if hWord then

				unUsed=Set_Property(DDECtrl$,'DDESERVICE','WinWord')

				unUsed=Set_Property(DDECtrl$,'DDECOMMAND','FileOpen"' :repDocName: '"') ;* Open project template

			end else

				error=Failed to find Word window...'

			end

We've duplicated it sort of- sporadic shut downs of DDE channel, looks like, so we'll poke at this.



Hey- let's call Ron Phillips out of retirement- he did this originally...
