Hello, I am trying to convert an Excel SpreadSheet to Python. The formula in Excel for one of the cells is =DDE("ser1","ser2","ser3"). The name of the server is ser1, ser2 is the topic, and ser3 is an item.
I already tried using: >>> import dde >>> ddes = dde.CreateServer() >>> ddes.Create("ser1") >>> ddec = dde.CreateConversation(ddes) >>> ddec.ConnectTo("ser1","ser3") >>> ddec.Connected() 1 All is ok so far. However: >>> ddec.Request("ser2") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ? error: Request failed >>> ddec.Exec("ser2") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<interactive input>", line 1, in ? error: Exec failed >>> Does anyone know the syntax to request information from a DDE server? I could not find any useful examples in the documentation. Thank you, Dana __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - 250MB free storage. Do more.
