Description ctron 2004-12-25 20:22:21 UTC 
using DDEPoke to send a string to another application only transmits the first
character.

The following code snippet shows "recipient(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8)" in a dialog box
but only transmits "r"

channel = DDEInitiate("FAXMNG", "TRANSMIT")
data$ = "recipient(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8)"
msgbox data$
DDEPoke ( channel, "sendfax", data$ )
DDETerminate channel

SW->AB: please have a look at this.
Comment 2 ab 2005-04-29 09:50:28 UTC 
I cannot reproduce the problem as FAXMNG is not known on my system. 
Is there a more general example that runs on all systems?
Comment 3 ctron 2005-04-29 10:34:43 UTC 
well theoretically it is the same for all dde connections.

it think there was a faxmng simulation tool which emulates the conversation. if
I find it I will post the link.

anyway it should be possible to reproduce this bug with any other dde conversation.

I found my version. You can grab it at: http://dentrassi.de/winfax_emu.zip

note that this is _not_ an offical winfax version but a sample application that
does communication like winfax.

cyb->ab: DDEPoke is not supported anymore, isn't it? Wonder whether this issue
should get addressed.
Comment 7 ab 2005-07-21 14:39:48 UTC 
ab->cyb: You're right, I did not realise this. All DDE commands
are indeed deprecated -> WONTFIX
