Error 60, TCB=-16389, using DDE with Visual PRO/5
Description:
An error 60, TCB=-16389, can occur if the command being sent to the other application is not terminated by a $00$. Although the command might be executed, it can result in strange behavior.
Here's an example:
005 OPEN (1,MODE="DDECLIENT")"EXCEL:SYSTEM"
010 REM OPEN (1,MODE="ddeclient")"Excel:d:\My Documents\test1.xls"
020 LET CMD$="[OPEN(""d:\My Documents\test1.xls"")]"+$00$
030 WRITE RECORD(1,KEY="DDE_EXECUTE")CMD$
040 CLOSE (1)
Note the $00$ appended on the end of line 20.
