You use DDE LINK like:
DDE LINK,<server name>,<topic name>
You send mIRC a topic name of command to tell it you will be having it perform commands.
SO you need to create the link with:
DDE LINK,mIRC,command
Then you use DDE POKE to send it the command to perform:
DDE POKE," ",/play #test c:\mirc\test.txt

Yes..just not the vars you are using.
You are trying to link with DDE LINK,mIRC,#test
instead of DDE LINK,mIRC,command
Then you can use poke to play the text file.

Just a note...

You should always have a CLOSE label in your
finished code. That's what Windows looks for when
programs are still open at shutdown/reboot... Wink
