Meaning

DMLERR_ADVACKTIMEOUT

A request for a synchronous advise transaction has timed out.

DMLERR_BUSY

The response to the transaction caused the DDE_FBUSY flag to be set.

DMLERR_DATAACKTIMEOUT

A request for a synchronous data transaction has timed out.

DMLERR_DLL_NOT_INITIALIZED

DMLERR_DLL_USAGE

An application initialized as APPCLASS_MONITOR has attempted to perform a dynamic data exchange (DDE) transaction, or an application initialized as APPCMD_CLIENTONLY has attempted to perform server transactions.

DMLERR_EXECACKTIMEOUT

A request for a synchronous execute transaction has timed out.

DMLERR_INVALIDPARAMETER

A parameter failed to be validated by the DDEML. Some of the possible causes follow:

The application used a data handle initialized with a different item name handle than was required by the transaction.

The application used a data handle that was initialized with a different clipboard data format than was required by the transaction.

The application used a client-side conversation handle with a server-side function or vice versa.

The application used a freed data handle or string handle.

More than one instance of the application used the same object.

DMLERR_LOW_MEMORY

A DDEML application has created a prolonged race condition (in which the server application outruns the client), causing large amounts of memory to be consumed.

DMLERR_MEMORY_ERROR

A memory allocation has failed.

DMLERR_NO_CONV_ESTABLISHED

A client s attempt to establish a conversation has failed.

DMLERR_NOTPROCESSED

A transaction has failed.

DMLERR_POKEACKTIMEOUT

A request for a synchronous poke transaction has timed out.

DMLERR_POSTMSG_FAILED

An internal call to the PostMessageFIXDT_ function has failed.

DMLERR_REENTRANCY

An application instance with a synchronous transaction already in progress attempted to initiate another synchronous transaction, or the DdeEnableCallback1HPSS1N function was called from within a DDEML callback function.

DMLERR_SERVER_DIED

A server-side transaction was attempted on a conversation terminated by the client, or the server terminated before completing a transaction.

DMLERR_SYS_ERROR

An internal error has occurred in the DDEML.

DMLERR_UNADVACKTIMEOUT

A request to end an advise transaction has timed out.

DMLERR_UNFOUND_QUEUE_ID

An invalid transaction identifier was passed to a DDEML function. Once the application has returned from an XTYP_XACT_COMPLETE callback, the transaction identifier for that callback function  is no longer valid.
