Do you get any errors when using the "[SET.PAGE.BREAK]" command with Excel 2013?

Do you check the DDE-ERROR attribute on the DDE frame (=the frame specified in the DDE INITIATE statement) after the DDE EXECUTE ?

That's how you can confirm which errors (if any) are happening.

If there really are no errors, you may want to check on more Microsoft-oriented communities to find out what changed between the different Excel releases; the change in behavior seems to be on their end.
