You will be able to run both DBC Signal Software AND TSY2K with its
GlobalServer at the same time
Then you will have "3 users" connected to the data manager, usually you only
have 2
ANd you can get the News with DBC while TSY2K is running.
I've just verifyied it, now.

With TSY2K, you still use DBC Data manager, therefore, you can still use DDE
Links.
But the COM technology is very usefull, now, that's why even there are still
some minor bugs I do recommand you to upgrade to TSY2K with Win NT 4 SP4 or
SP5.
I do not know with TS4, but the problem is that you're unable to import tick
by tick data using ASCII files with TST2K !! you'll get only daily data.

Omega didn't provide any paper documentation at all !!!, everything is in
the help of the software and the Knowledge base recently created in their
website.
