Summary:
SYMPTOMS
The REQUEST function does not work correctly with Excel. The
request message is received, however, Excel does not process the
WM_DDE_DATA message that is sent back.
RESOLUTION
The fResponse bit must also be set in the WM_DDE_DATA message (bit
12). This bit tells Excel that the data message is in reply to a
REQUEST function and not an ADVISE function. If
"lpddeup->fResponse=1" is added, the REQUEST function should work
correctly.
