I am relying on memory now but...
MyFile=Freefile
Open "COM1:96,N,8,1" for binary as #MyFile
opens COM1 at 9600 with no parity, 8 data bits and 1 stop bit. Unfortunately, it relys upon the operating system to do this and struggles under NT/2000. Additionally, last time I used it, 9600 baud was the fastest you coud go.
Depending on the QBasic version you are using. I did 115200Bps with Qbasic Extended 7.0.... :rolleyes:
