I am finally getting to the nuts and bolts of the only part of my app that needs to use DDE. I haven't used DDE since school, so I need a little help.

I am poking journal entries into Peachtree...
Establishing the channel and topic is not problem, and I think I have the actual POKEing of the data under control.
What I am lost on is how to set the file.
For example in VB (where my only DDE experience lies),
I would just set the object's
linkitem = "file=generaljournal, field=date"
text = "12/10/97"
and then POKE it.
Well in VFP, DDEPOKE doesn't have a parameter for the file, just the field.

How do I tell Peachtree that the data I'm poking is going into the general journal?

Thanks in advance for any wisdom you could impart.
