Google says "setting up a DDE connection involves sending a message to
*every* top-level window to see if it will accept the conversation.
You've got a process that is not clearing its message queue" 

I guess the thing to try and find out is what process is the one not
responding to the DdeConnect, whether its LibreOffice itself in some
fashion or some other app.

I presume your DdeServer there is working and not the one itself
directly blocking the DdeConnect ?
