The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows version 3.1

The DdeUnaccessData function is incorrectly documented on page 196 of the "Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit: Programmer's Reference, Volume 2: Functions" manual, as follows:

   The DdeUnaccessData function frees a global memory object.

The DdeUnaccessData function "unaccesses" a global memory object accessed by DdeAccessData. These functions are similar to GlobalUnlock and GlobalLock, respectively.
