Here is one very simple example of a DDE link with WinWord 6. It IS working.
In Word you have to create a file (DDETEST.DOC in this example) and define a bookmark named "Bm1".
{------------------- complete source code --------------------------}
unit Unit1;
interface
uses
SysUtils, WinTypes, WinProcs, Messages, Classes, Graphics, Controls,
Forms, Dialogs, StdCtrls, DdeMan;
type
TForm1 = class(TForm)
DdeConv: TDdeClientConv;
Word: TButton;
procedure WordClick(Sender: TObject);
private
{ Private-dΘclarations }
public
{ Public-dΘclarations }
end;
{DdeConv properties are : }
{ ConnectMode : ddeManual }
{ DdeService : [None] }
{ DdeTopic : [None] }
{ FormatChars : False }
{ Name : DdeConv }
var
Form1: TForm1;
implementation
{$R *.DFM}
procedure TForm1.WordClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
if DdeConv.SetLink( 'WINWORD', 'D:\WINWORD\DDETEST' ) and
DdeConv.OpenLink then
begin
ShowMessage( 'Link with WinWord established !' ) ; { be sure the link exist }
DdeConv.PokeData( 'Bm1', 'Data from Delphi !' ) ; { insert 'Data from Delphi' in word document }
DdeConv.CloseLink ;
end ;
end;
end.
{------------------- end of source code --------------------}
Once you know that it is working it is easier to make it working !
