Hullo!
So, I followed Ted's proposal and the result is a
-hopefully- user-friendly interface for Dynamic Data Exchange.
In win_paqs.zip, page below, there is now
DDE.ad*
DDE-Excel.*
DDE_Test*
The latter is a functional demo, filling a spreadsheet with
data.
Maybe I'll look at the COM approach later - especially
if this is a mean to get rid of the language-sensitiveness
in Excel's DDE commands...
State of these sources are "draft" and comments are welcome.

Considering that even Excel 5.0a from 1993 did respond to my DDE
requests, I wouldn't be surprised. OLE will be the next one and you'll
have to reprogram all in XDCOM-.NET/Sgrunf2 in a couple of years.
So is life...
