Subject: Using DDE applications

CADdirect supports the DDE API, which allows you to execute CADdirect com­mands at the command line from an external application. CADdirect includes a sam­ple command-line application that reads a script file and sends it to CADdirect for step-by-step execution.

To see a sample of DDE script execution

   1   Compile the source code of the DDESample project. The sample application is located at:
Source\CADdirect\api\DDE\Samples\DDESample

   2   Run CADdirect.

   3   Run the DDESample application with the sample script file that is included in the VC project.

CADdirect shows the results.
