I am creating an application with 2 (or 3) seperate compiled executables. How can I allow my applications to send data back and forth? (Strings, Integers - nothing much)
I was thinking about using Winsock and using a port for my program, but this will probably be inefective.
How could I implement DDE so that one program can send a request to another, and the other can send a reply?

What is the easiest method, and can anyone show me some example code.
