Packets Hot
The number of advise updates sent to the DDE Client module in this DDE Format.
Packets Cold
The number of request updates sent to the DDE Client module in this DDE Format. A conversation in AdvanceDDE or FastDDE does not support requests, so this is always zero for those formats.

Class Name
The class name of the DDE handling window of the module. This is useful to determine whether the client is using DDEML or using DDE Messages.
