Hi all!

I am exploring the potentials of the "Send DDE" script step. I will use it to call DOS commands, and I would like to have a short guide regarding the parameters I can use (not parameters of the actual DOS coomands) - if any.

For example, I have seen that I should use a line like: cmd /c ....

are there any other switches like /c I should know about?

Also, in case of another application, how can I have a complete list of the DDE commands it supports and how they must be called from FM?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot!

Hi

I just fell on your post and it's exactly what I am looking for... I am still pretty confused with the send DDE command.

What should I put in the "Service Name", Topic, and command field ?

Well, I guess that cmd /c "..." goes into commands, but the rest ?

Thanks in advance for your help,

F.
