Does OI 10x support DDE?

Hi Mark,

No, currently it does not - MS deprecated it back in the mid-90s in favour of OLE and so far this post is the only interest I've seen in it. What sort of DDE support are you looking for - controlling OI or using OI as a controller?

Regards

Carl Pates

Hi Carl, I have been using DDE to for two-way communications with a CAD app. It has worked quite well.

Any chance of reinstating DDE in 10.x?

I managed to replace DDE functionality by creating 2 Windows apps. One sends messages from OI10 to the CAD app. The other sends messages from the CAD app to OI10.
