If you are reading but not able to poke then this will not help. There is an issue between Microsoft and Google that can cause DDE to fail between Microsoft products and any DDE Source. It only happens if you are running google Chrome browser and as soon as you turn it off the connections works. Bugs were filed with both parties over 2 years ago and so far it has not been fixed. Here is a link to a KnowledgeBase article at Kepware that talks about the bug.
