I've written a Python program that uses DDE.  The program runs quite 
nicely on my XP SP2 PC.  I'm using Python 2.5.1.

But when a friend of mine tries to run it, he gets the subject error 
on the server.Create line:

     server = dde.CreateServer()
     server.Create("CC_DDE")

My friend also has XP SP2, and is using Python 2.5 ; I've asked him 
to upgrade to Python 2.5.1.

What are possible causes of this problem?

BTW, what's the purpose of the Create() argument?  My friend gets the 
invalid-argument no matter what literal he puts there; I can use the 
same arguments he's tried without a problem.

Googling this, I also found that Create() can take a second argument, 
an integer, but I don't know what that does.  If these arguments are 
documented somewhere on the Web, please clue me in.

Bob
