Maximum Number of Bloomberg DDE Links

M

I'm running multiple instances of a Valuation Monitor application in
Excel 2000 on an XP machine. The app pulls real-time security market
data from Bloomberg using Bloomberg's DDE Server Addin. I've noticed
that the second instance of the XL app is NOT receiving data for all
the DDE requests. I want to know what are the variables involved in
limiting the number of working DDE links in Excel on the same machine.
Is it strictly memory, processor speed, Excel 2000, DDE Server
technology, Bloomberg, or a combination of all these factors that are
preventing updates in the 2nd instance of the application. The first
running instance is receiving accurate real-time data. It's the 2nd
instance that is not receiving data for all the requests.
