Dec 23rd, 1999, 04:44 AM
What is the generic DDE library I can reference in VB5? For example, there is MS Excel Object Library file (Excel8.olb) that I can reference to use DDE functions (ie. Application.DDEInitiate) in VBA for MS Excel. Of course, I can reference this file to use DDE but I prefer more a generic method.

Please help.

Thanx.

DDE is dead, don't use it (unless you have to) otherwise, you can use automation to control MS Office Apps.

Here's an example on how to do it.
