Abstract
Dynamic data exchange (DDE) allows accessing another program. A Windows program that makes DDE functionality available connects to the system under a server name and provides various topics. You can establish a connection to this program by providing the specified server name and a valid theme. You may use the established channel for certain transactions related to data (Items) that are supported by the server. All DDE transactions are realized by SimTalk calls in Plant Simulation. You can call any method in Plant Simulation with DDE, including the methods, which you have defined.
