Hi Joe,
That's what I thought about the DDE Server! And you are right, one could do
the OLE link from a MS chart to Excel...the reason I was probing to see if
one could do it from DDE, was to save on system resources (which would be
substantial if you need to keep around 20 charts open, or even 20 securities
in one chart open, for the OLE link).
Thanks for your response. It certainly confirmed my assumptions.

defined, it holds no history. You can use an OLE Link to Excel, to
accomplish what you want. Load the last 20 bars of a 5 minute chart, right
click on the price bar, select copy, then select Paste Special in Excel,
then Paste Link, as CSV...
