Description
Specifies the DDE server application to be linked to a DDE client.
Typically, DdeService is the file name (with path, if necessary) of the DDE server application's main executable file without the .EXE extension, or the project name without the .DPR extension.
For example, to link to a TDdeServerConv component in PROJ1.DPR, set DdeService to PROJ1.
At design time, specify DdeService by typing the DDE server application name in the Object Inspector or by choosing Paste Link in the DDE Info dialog box. To establish a link at run time, specify the service and topic with the SetLink method.
Note: The necessary value for DdeService depends on the individual server application. See the documentation of the DDE server application for specific information about how to specify the server application.
