Access to the serial interface, how can I read/write ASCII-Chars to COM1 ?
Hi,
You need an ActiveX unless you decide to go the API way (and it is not
suggested). There are the MSCOMM32.ocx, with Visual Studio, and also the
XMCOMM control, free, at
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/richard_grier/. Both controls
behave essentially the same, so, you can take a look at the doc about the
MSCOMM32 control, and take note of the differences, if you use XMCOMM, at
Richard page.
Hoping it may help,
