Hi:
I'm trying to convert an old Probasic program of mine to VB.
The program reads the serial port (com1) which is attached
to a printer line coming from the main frame computer and stores the text data in files.
I have tried to adapt VBTerm to this purpose but the resulting output is not quite right. The port settings are com1, 9600,8,n,1.
The output I'm getting has about 60% correct text but is the other 40% is characters such as superscripts, accent marks, carets, etc.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated:D :confused:

Well, I solved it myself. Setting should have been 9600, o, 7, 1.. Now to trap the data I want to save...:eek:
