HI all guru's,
I have a Windows2000 SP4 PC with Excel 2000 running on it.
I have to interface NetDDE data into Excel from various VAX stations. This data is then transfered to OSI PI Historian via OPC server interface.
The DDE Shares are set, firwall OK etc etc and Excel gets the data from the VAX stations.
After between 1-2hours excel data is no longer updated. If I restart the workbook its ok again for another 1-2hours??????
Can't find any errors in the event loggers.
Have tried all service packs of Windows 2000
Have tried all service packs of office 2000 & office 2003.
Have also switch dual core processing off.
Upgrade due in a couple of years so need to get this working.
Now really stuck and don't know where to look now?
Any help or suggestions greatly welcome.
