 CommEvent Usage

Does anyonw know where I can get some detailed information
on Comm Event?
The books I have on this are very brief..
I would like to input Bit strings through a serial communication
port and display the information using this command but need
more specifics on how it works

Thanx,

I don't know what books he has but I had a reply from the author of a
book called "Serial Communications for Visual Basic Programmers" by
Richard Grier - (apologies to Richard for any slight title mistake).
Richard does post to this group often, so get his website address and
order it.

The only useful book I found in what was meant to be Europes largest
bookstore was a pocket book by Mike Tooley, Published by Newnes entitled
"Data Communications".  Amongst the pages is the format for X-Modem and
X-Modem CRC which, with a bit of programming works through the MSComm
control and works well.

All other books in this ilk seem to be about wave propogation and
quantum mechanics or similar and no programming.

Its not what you were asking for but..
Normaly you dont need the OnComm Event for serial communikation.
Use some Timer and put this code into it

Private Sub My_Timer()
   If Comm.InBufferCount > 0 Then
      instring = Comm.Input
      Print #1, instring;
   End If
End Sub
