Justin,
I am using the demo Excel sheet found at
http://www.interactivebrokers.com/index.html?cgi-bin/apiBetaControl.pl~top.body
What I tried to do was substitute the usual username
cell with //computer/usename
I can pass DDE interprocess (same machine) without
a problem, but so far have not been able to establish
a netDDE connection from an Excel on one machine
to a TWS on another. I've setup both DDEshare &
trusted, also tried NetBIOS straight & over IP.
I haven't used NetDDE before, so I'm not sure if I
am making a fundamental NetDDE flaw, or if this is
a TWS issue.
Have you tried a resource like this:
Creating a NetDDE Link in Excel on Windows NT
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q128/4/91.asp
or others on the MS web site.
Have you tried something like a Google search for NetDDE?
You might also post your question to the xltraders discussion group on
yahoogroups. Some subscribers to that group do some very sophisticated
things with Excel.
