Hi,

Just updated to 7.09 and recompiling my app now gives me an unresolved external DDEConnect (amongst other unresolved external DDE functions) What do i need to change to link this in?

Many Thanks

Pete

As far as I know DDE calls are not longer supported under 32 bits enviroment.

You will need to change them to use OLE calls instead to the DDE components you are using.

It worked with FWH 7.05

In any case 7.09 has DDEConnect function and it gets linked. We should not get unresoleved external error. May be you need to check the library and installation. I am using BCC version

Peter,

Are you using xHB commercial ?

Yes

Getting the same DDE related unresolved externals when linking with xHB commercial (latest) with FWH latest.

Here you have the missing DDEML.OBJ for FWH for xHB

Thanks antonio - that now compiles when i link the obj.

Is there any specific location i should install this obj?

Is this a temporary fix and will it be corrected in a future release or shall we continue to link the obj?

Thanks for your response

Pete

Pete,

You can place it anywhere

It has been already corrected and FWH 7.11 and higher will include it inside FiveHCM.lib, so it will not be needed to keep linking it
