After a link is established between a text box and a data field in the wedge, you
could issue commands to the Wedge using the text box "LinkExecute Method". For
Example the following code sends the string "Testing" followed by a carriage
return out the serial port.
Note: The Wedge must
be active on the specified serial port for the following code to work.
Hot = 1 : Warm = 2 :
Notify=3 : None = 0
Text2.linkmode = None
' disable links before setting topic
Text2.LinkTopic = "winwedge|com2" ' set the link
topic
' there is no need to set the LinkItem property when sending DDE
commands
Text2.LinkMode = Warm ' set the link mode to "Warm"
or "Hot"
Text2.LinkExecute "[Sendout('Testing',13)]" ' send
the string out the serial port
' The following line will
close WinWedge if you uncomment it
'Text2.LinkExecute
"[APPEXIT]"
