I'm having a strabge problem using DDE in Visual Basic, to wit, I can't
seem to open the SYSTEM topic in a DDE-aware application (Excel, Ami Pro, 
KEATerm).
I don't have any problem if, in Excel for example, I specify a worksheet
name - this is annoying as I don't want to be tied to any specific worksheet
or file.

Does anyone know what's wrong here ? Is it a bug ?

Thanks in advance,

Tam.
