    Unhappy

    Can anyone help me out with establishing a connection between two computers through the serial port so that you can send or recieve data? Thanks

    get a serial cable and connect up the two free comm ports.

    next, make sure both computers are not connected to the internet (this conflicts with comm ports sometimes).

    You must decide upon a conversation system based on your own commands, and which of the two computers will be the master or the slave, if needed.

    look in the MSDN library on how to actually operate the MSCOMM control.

    Bit of a vague question for me to go much further...
