You can not pass parameters to the Main procedure. The MapBasic RemoteMsgHandler can handle DDE input fra a calling app with a commandinfo(cmd_info_msg). But the calling app is not mapbasic window. If your in a mb app there must be another way of getting data from MapInfo than DDE through the MapBasic window. Especially when the data is coordinates
