Returning Curve Name using DDE

I was wondering if there was a way to return the Curve Name or Curve Label of a curve from Dplot while using DDE (say, from the Visual Basic Editor in Excel, for example). Does anyone know how to do this? If so, could you provide some VB script that shows how you did this?

Thanks!

If you're using the DPlot AddIn then call DPlot_Request with the request item set to "Legend(n)" (w/o the quotes), where n is the 1-based curve index. If you are not using the AddIn see http://www.dplot.com/help/index.htm?hel ... rtdata.htm
