DDETerminate Statement

Microsoft Access Visual Basic

DDETerminate (channum)

Remarks

The channum argument specifies the channel number to close. It refers to a channel opened by the DDEInitiate function. If the channum argument isn't an integer corresponding to an open channel, a run-time error occurs.

Once a channel is closed, any subsequent DDE functions or statements performed on that channel cause a run-time error.

The DDETerminate statement has no effect on active DDE link expressions in fields on forms or reports.
