I want to use TDdeServerConv/TDdeServerItem as a data source, providing a
lot of fields for no. of items,

and I want to link with variable DdeItem Name for selecting items and
fields, like:

"item1,[field1,field2,field3]"
"item2,[field4,field5,field6]"
"item3,[field1,field4,field5]"

However, I found that BCB can only set to a fixed Item Name, so I cannot get
the selected item and/or fields for the link.

So, is there any solution for this variable DdeItem Name problem? or Is
there any third party libraries for DDE?

Thanks
Eric

I'm sure I just hacked the DDE code when I needed to do this. Due to the
way it is written you have to take their code, rename everything, and then
make sure you switch entirely to your version in the app, but apart from
that it works fine.

I'll see what I can dig up. It won't be until Monday though.
