Hi,

In order to communicate with another supplier application, they told me to
do the following things...

shell "C:tmptest.exe",1
Dim DDE_Channel as integer
DDE_Channel = Application.DDEInitiate("test","System")

===take into account a small delay

'A delay of 2 seconds is added between editor activation and DDE message

if Application.Wait(Now + TimeValue("0:00:02")) then
Application.DDEExecute DDE_Channel , " ... a number of parameters..."

I need to know how can I do this in Delphi.
Someone advise me to use DDEClientConv component from Delphi component
pallete, but I don't know if it is the best way and how to do it.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks.
