Configuring DDE Shares
InTouch is shipped with the Wonderware NetDDE product, portions of which were
licensed to Microsoft as Network DDE for use in Windows for Workgroups, Windows
95, and Windows NT operating systems.
In order to allow NT Network DDE to act as a resource for a FactorySuite component
(such as InTouch or IndustrialSQL Server) it must be modified.
Note DDE shares must be created for all nodes running Windows NT with DDE
resources that InTouch View nodes may need. For example, if you have a node running
a GE Genius (NT) IO server, you must create a DDE share for that server if InTouch is
to access those resources. To run the InTouch application on a Windows NT node, a
specific InTouch for Windows NT application package must be installed on the node.
Ø To add a DDE Share on the Windows 95 or Windows NT operating systems:
1.
On the Start menu of the Windows Taskbar, point to Run. In the Run dialog box
that appears, type DDESHARE and then click OK.
The DDE Share program's main window appears.
2.
From the DDE Shares menu, click DDE Shares.
The DDE Shares dialog box appears.
3.
Click Add a Share.
The DDE Share Properties dialog box appears.
