[ApplicationDdeDicts]

Section

This optional section of the configuration file is used to associate application names
with Tandem DDE Gateway dictionaries. Dictionaries are needed by client
applications that use the element-by-element DDE Poke and DDE Request functions.
ApplicationName objects in this section are associated with Tandem DDE Gateway
dictionaries by using the following syntax:

ApplicationName=Tandem DDE Gateway dictionary name

ApplicationName

Enter each ApplicationName as it will be referenced in DDE Execute
INITIALIZESERVICE commands or enter DEFAULT (for the DEFAULT application).

Tandem DDE Gateway dictionary name

Enter the file name of a Tandem DDE Gateway dictionary created by the Bridge
program on the Tandem system and downloaded to the workstation. If you specify a
file name and extension but no directory, then the same search path as for the DdeDict
option in the [Configuration] section will be used.

Default

If no ApplicationName option is specified in the [ApplicationDdeDicts] section to
correspond with an ApplicationName referenced in a DDE Execute
INITIALIZESERVCE command, then the DdeDict option from the [Configuration]
section will be used.

Example

[ApplicationDdeDicts]

PAYROLL=C:\PAY\DDEDICT.DIC

EXPENSES=C:\PAY\DDEDICT.DIC

GENERAL-LEDGER=C:\GL\LEDGER.DIC

ACCOUNTS-PAYABLE=C:\AP\AP.DIC

Note

If you use an ApplicationName (other than DEFAULT) in DDE Execute INITIALIZESERVICE commands,
the ApplicationName must be configured in the [ApplicationPorts] and [ApplicationHostEnvironments]
sections.

[ApplicationPorts] Section

This section of the configuration file is used to associate application names with
PortName objects and Tandem Pathway environments or Expand node names.
ApplicationName objects in this section are associated with Port objects (as configured
in the [Ports] section) using the following syntax:

ApplicationName=PortName

ApplicationName

Enter each ApplicationName as it will be referenced in DDE Execute
INITIALIZESERVICE commands. You can use up to 30 alphanumeric and hyphen
