Is it possible to get information from another DDE server?

Is it possible for MT4 scripts to import (retrieve) data from another application? For example, in eSignal EFS, a DDEOutput object is created and periodically set its value. Is it possible for a MQ4 script to access that value? If so, I don't need to use file to exchange information between MT4 and eSignal EFS.


var study = null;
var dde = new DDEOutput( "movavg" + getSymbol() );
var bInit = false;

function preMain() {

setPriceStudy(true);

}

function main() {
var retVal;

if ( bInit==false ) {
//create an EMA study
study = ema( 10 );
bInit=true;
}

//gather the current value from the study
retVal = study.getValue(0);

//if it is not null, assign it to our DDE object
if ( retVal != null) dde.set( retVal );

return( retVal );
}

Directly via DDE, no.
