DDE Link

[watchh]

I'm trying to collect data from a DDE link and would like the Sub to run when a bit from the link changes from 0 to 1.
I tried to use to use the OnChange event, but it is only recognized if it is typed in, not when remotely changed. I,m currnetly collecting the data by using the OnTimer. The problem with this is having multiple forms with the timers running every 10 seconds to catch the data really bogs everything down.
Any help will be greatly appriciated.

why dont you have one form running a timer event collect all your data and update all your other forms form this one timer event

I really want to get away from the timer event. I am currently running two apps. that are run and set by two different links. The future to all of this is 50+ links. All would have seperate forms and will have different data at different times of the day, with some overlapping.
