Hello,

Is there a new native technoloy that would allow to do the same as DDE
within Excel, but more efficient and more robust and future proof ?

I mean the same as a real-time-values-update (push) through a new kind
of DDE link to a kind of DDE Server.


Today there is not DDE support in .NET, isn't it ?

Hi !

This is not DDE, this is OLE technology.

It's not possible to make 'push of data' from the provider to various
clients with this technology, like subscribing to live market datas from
providers.

There are examples of using DDE out there on the net. Check
codeproject.com. But jsut a warning DDE isn't used except for legacy
support any more. OLE technology for connecting to Excel will be pretty
good but there is also the .Net framework API for office that you can use.
