 WIN95 >>>> please help >>>NO SUCH THING AS SIMPLE CO....

Hi:

Sorry but I am FruStRAAAtEd.....

First off i am a beginner using vb3 pro and selfteaching...

I used to use the following to simply dial and free the modem for voice,
but now it just won't work....

as a matter of fact, i've gone and gotten several samples vbkb, vbsamps such as
vbcomdem and commdemo, and NOTHING will connect to my modem...

Unfortunately, i don't yet understand the global constant and API
terminology...

THIS used to work...

        PhoneNumber$ = "2346789"
        Open "COM2" For Output As #1
        Print #1, "ATZ"
        Print #1, "ATDT" & PhoneNumber$ & Chr$(13)
        Close #1

Absolutely desperate...

Thanks for the help.

Go to the Tools Option from the Main Menu, Select Custom Controls, add the
Microsoft Communications Custom Control.  Then add the following code

Sub Form_load()
  PhoneNumber$ = "2346789"
  MSComm1.CommPort = 2
  MSComm1.Settings = "9600,N,8,1"
  MSComm1.InputLen = 0
  MSComm1.PortOpen = True
  MSComm1.Output = "ATDT + PhoneNumber$ + Chr$(13)
  ReturnString = MSComm1.Input
  MSComm1.PortOpen = False   ' Close port
Sub End

Any other questions???

        Maybe your modem doesn't work.

"he" must have been imagining this was where you post for assistance...

whats wrong with him, why doesn't he find somewhere that has beginners, or at
least former beginners to get help from...
