This request is not understood.  If you want to implement an application that
can be registered as a server that receives DDE requests from OpenOffice Calc,
I think you need to dig into the Microsoft technology for that.

What is meant by "other than soffice?"  Of course, using OpenOffice as a DDE
server is not going to solve the problem.  You need a server of your own
devising, or that is already available from some party, such as a provider of
the data stream.

I believe the big issue is that the Calc DDE function does not notice changes
at the server, it just gets what there is at the time the function is
evaluated, whether on loading of the spreadsheet or some other trigger of
recalculation.  Even then, it might not be triggered by a change elsewhere in
the spreadsheet.

More information is needed about the particular use case to see what avenues
might satisfy its requirements.
