Works a treat! Thanks to SwfKit's support for the answer! Really cool being able to turn on/off electrical devices from Flash!

thanks for the reply,
I did get it to work and was able to successfully make
a program to talk to the serial port and get response.

I have one question however, I tested the program on windows XP, but I will be requiring to run the program on windows 98.

Will the same program also work on windows 98.
Does cportx work on both win XP and win 98.

I tried to go on the download page and see if it mentions which operating systems cportx will work on but I did not see it.

thanks for all your support.

However, I have seen some serial devices/software unable to send a value of 0, which can be problematic (a value of 0 is actually just an RS-232 start bit). "

So... cportX is not too good it seems. I am going to see if MSComm will work...I did get it to work and was able to successfully make
a program to talk to the serial port and get response.
