We contemplated this a little more, one thing that we understand about Windows dynamic data exchange is that if on the system there is a window part of a thread which is not getting and dispatching messages, then it can block DDE.

However, all windows within Sierra Chart will be associated with threads that are responsive and getting and dispatching messages and there has been no recent changes to any of this. There are no new windows created on background threads. And as long as the user interface of Sierra Chart is responsive it will not cause a problem with DDE.
