Future of DDE?

I have a contractor rewriting some code that ultimately generates reports in
an Excel spreadsheet. The old process was that our data crunching software
would spit out data, then we'd run a VBA macro to pull it into the
spreadsheet and do all the formatting.

However, on the rewrite, I notice that he's using dde in the new data
crunching software to generate the spreadsheet. I guess I was under the
impression that dde is rather old and obsolete. Is that correct and does
anyone have any knowledge of its future support in Excel?
Thanks
 
Not really sure in the case of Excel, but in VB 6.0 it was working, but no
longer under VB.NET, so you can do the math yourself i think......



Grtz,
Rody
