- I am attempting to perform a DDE LinkExecute in VB to a server form also
- created in VB. If the server's menu has the focus when the link execute is
- performed the client hangs and I cannot reestablish the link without
- restarting the client application. I tried working around this by changing
- the focus from the server menu to the client form before doing the link
- execute but this does not work if the client is minimized at the time of the
- link execute.
-
- Any suggestions on how to get this to work?
