DDEUpdate (Function)
In french: DDEModifie
Modifies a linked data.
DDEUpdate sends the new value of a program data to all the applications that have created a "hot" or "warm" link with this data. Therefore, the program must have accepted a link to this data and it must have branched a procedure in response to the DDE event for requesting the link (with DDEEvent with the DDEtoLink event).
Example
DDEEvent("LinkProc", DDEtoLink)
DDEUpdate("MySubject", "MyItem", "abcd")
Syntax
<Result> = DDEUpdate(<Topic> , <Object> , <Value>)
<Result>: Boolean
  • True if the data was modified,
  • False if an error occurred. DDEError returns the details of the error.
<Topic>: Character string
Topic of connection.
<Object>: Character string
Object of connection.
<Value>: Character string
New value for the linked data.
