Hi!
I am working with DDE application that links Excel with a website on a remote server.
The website sends messages and that application inserts them into Excel.
The problem is, each new message overwrites the previous, without creating any logs. I did not write the Excel app, and don't know how it works.
I NEED TO WRITE AN APP THAT WOULD SAVE The MESSAGES TO A DATABASE. ACCESS, SQL2K, ORACLE - DOES NOT MATTER.
Somebody suggested to write code to monitor socket activity and use it as a "trigger" to run SQL query: Use exhisting Excel file as datasource, grab data, insert into DB.
I am good with Databases and VB.Net, but weak on WinSock API side.
* How do you write code to monitor WINSOCK for received messages?
* How do I distinguish that WINSOCK ACTIVITY IS RELATED TO message came form THAT site?
Any suggestions, please?
