    Question

    Am taking in some input from an external device into the mscomm control, I am using...

    Temp = MSComm1.Input

    Inbuff = CByte(Temp)


    in the above, temp is a string, inbuff is a byte

    Lets say I get 'y' in the temp string, should this conversion end me up with the value of 121 stored in inbuff?

    I am getting a type mismatch error when it hits that line of code.

    Any input would be greatly appreciated
