Application Note DirectSOFT32 DSData Server Application Note
Updating existing DDE applications created using versions of the DDE Server earlier than v3.0
v1.7a Upgrade This is an upgrade to the DDE Server to v1.7a.  You must have previous version installed on your system before you can install this upgrade.

(File size = ~1.4MB)

v1.6 Patch If you are using v1.6 of the DDE Server and writing data via the DirectNet protocol, you should get this patch.  We have found that once you write to a register location, you will not be able to write to any other location.  For example,  If you are using v1.60 of the DDE server with a 305 PLC, you may experience the following problem:  After writing to R6xx, the server is not able to write to any other location.

To correct this problem, please copy the 'protoccm.dll' file to the BIN subdirectory of where you installed the DDE server, which is usually c:\dirctsft\bin.
