DDE error

I was using DDE in MAS 90.
My client was just upgraded to Mas 200.

My DDE script doesn't work now.

I get:
==========================================
[Mas 200 Customizer / DDE Link Error]
Error communicatiing with DDE application

Error #47: substring reference out of string
=============================================

A few seconds later I get:
==============================================
[WindX Client Connection - Reconnect]
Unable to reconect to your session
The server side of your session is either no longer running on the server,
or it is no longer communbicationg with the Application Server.
===============================================
This is opening a MSWord document and passing five fields to it.

I have made sure all of the field names & lengths are correct in the script.

(abbreviated example):
========
AppRestore
Appshow
Insert [STP(ML_NAME$,1)]+Chr$(10)
FilePrint
===========



I have tried removing all lines field references and just using one command to "FilePrint".

I still get the error.

I replaced my script with the Sample1.txt script and the problem still exist.


If I put a document name in the topic box, it opens the document, but does not transfer any of the fields to it (like it used to).


I am at a complete loss. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

<< Jim >>
