Summary

This paper has explained the fundamental concepts and terminology associated with DDE and has described two case studies showing how DDE can be used as an integration tool. In today’s integrated manufacturing environment, it is important to be able to share and exchange data from one program application to another, where each application plays a special role in the integration process. Dynamic Data Exchange is the “glue” which enables this level of integration. As a minimum, technical graduates entering the work force should have a basic understanding of DDE concepts and capabilities.
