Work with DDE Links from Excel to Shiny in R

Guys I have a DDE link that feeds my excel spreadsheet.

This is the DDE Link: NAMEofTheCOMPANY|cot!STOCKA.LAST he hands me the real-time market stock price.

I then paste it to a cell on the excel spreadsheet and works fine.

What I need:

1) With this DDe link in my Excel spreadsheet how do I "send it" to Shiny?

2) How do you work with DDe links? Is there a way I can "send" this link DIRECT to Shiny without having to go through my Excel spreadsheet and then send it to Shiny?

Any help guys

I am a begginer in Shiny.

Many thanks
