Can Flex integrate with DDE ? As Flex as now an integral part in the later version is this not an option?

The way I see it... When you draw that line and say "NO MORE DDE" or, more to this point, "NO MORE USER TOOL," there are people that will never cross that line and will actually get left behind of their own accord. You can't always just go back to the 3rd party vendor and insist that they change their ways. When they don't respond because it doesn't make any business sense to them, or they aren't even around anymore, you can't always "just replace" that component. I predict that many years from now, there will still be a huge portion of the ARS base that is "stuck" on ARS 8.0. Or worse yet, it will become a tipping point for people leaving the platform all together. IMHO, this is why Microsoft still supports DDE today. Same reason that COBOL still exists.
