StopServerDDE

Description

Causes your application to stop acting as a DDE server application. Any subsequent requests from a DDE client application fail.

Syntax

StopServerDDE ( { windowname, } applname, topic )

Argument	Description
windowname (optional)	The name of the server window. The default is the current window. If you have more than one server window, windowname is required.
applname	The DDE name for your PowerBuilder application.
topic	A string whose value is the topic you declared when you called StartServerDDE.

Returns

Integer. Returns 1 if it succeeds. If an error occurs, StopServerDDE returns -1, meaning the DDE server was not started. If any argument’s value is null, StopServerDDE returns null.

Caution The arguments applname and topic must match the arguments in a prior StartServerDDE call.
