Hi,
I'm experiencing problems with DDE communication between Forms4.5 and Excel
on Win2000
I'm trying to start DDE communication with following PL/SQL code:
ConvID := DDE.INITIATE('EXCEL','WorkSheet.xls'); -- ConvID is PLS_INTEGER
datatype
Then, I use DDE.POKE to set some values in Excel sheet.
This code (and form) works fine, without any problems on Win95/Win98, but
seems it doesn't work on Win2000 (I get exception DDE.DDE_INIT_FAILED or
DDE.DMLERR_NO_CONV_ESTABLISHED - anyway, I can't start DDE communication)
I assume that Win2000 is DDE capable
Can someone help please?
Thanks in advance
Aca Vasic
