I am using DDE to run a program called ISYS which is a search program. These are my commands:

#1 Isyschannel = DDEInitiate("IQW", QryCmd")
#2 Access.DDEPoke Isyschannel "Action", "Query" & Searchstring

I can get ACCESS and ISYS talking to one another, because my minimize commands work, but when I try to pass the Searchstring to ISYS I get an error.

Is anyone familiar with this enough to let me know whether there is anything wrong with my command (#2) listed above?
