(C#, or VB.NET) In Visual Basic 6, using DDE was a simple process, but in .NET I can't seem to figure out how to do it. Any insight would be appreciated Regards, -DarkStarX "If at first you don't succeed, sky diving's not for you."

Remember you could still create a VB DLL to expose all the DDE methods that you need to use and use COM to talk to it. G'luck. -chris

I will look over the code more thoroughly however, and if all else fails, you're suggestion to create a VB6 COM component is a good idea Regards, -DarkStarX "If at first you don't succeed, sky diving's not for you."
