DDEInitiate returning zero

jjk2 · January 3rd, 2008, 04:59 AM

Code:

    Dim chan As Integer
    MsgBox (server & topic & request)
    chan = Application.DDEInitiate("server", topic)
    MsgBox (chan)
    theArray = Application.DDERequest(chan, "id8?result")
    'MsgBox (theArray(1))
    Application.DDETerminate chan

DDEInitiate keeps returning zero.....

how do i fix this ?

The 1st argument, where you have "server", doesn't seem like a legitimate application name.

What are you trying to connect to?
