DDE Execute Verb

Commands should normally be sent using the DDE Execute verb. Square brackets [ ] enclosing each command (as per Excel) are optional.

Any command string can be sent to the "System" topic. Many commands specify a data set name as the first parameter. Such commands can also be send directly to the data set topic, with the data set name omitted as a parameter. For example, sending

[NEW.CHART(c:\spcwin\data\sample.dbf,1,,,HEIGHT)]

to the "System" topic is the same as sending

[NEW.CHART(1,,,HEIGHT)]

to the "c:\spcwin\data\sample.dbf" topic.

If a command is not specific to a data set name, it may be sent to any valid topic.

Data sets should normally referred using their full path names. If you specify just a file name without a path, an attempt will be made to match the name against open data sets.
