Procomm to Hyperterminal

[ashmac2]

I have an Aspect script sending files thru Procomm. The system we dial into is changing so that we must move to Hyperterminal to dial in and send the files. Hundreds of files are sent daily and doing it manually is impossible. Only one file at a time can be received at the other facilty and we receive back a confirmation number. Then Procomm hangs up and starts over with the next file. Does anyone know anything about automating something like this in Hyperterminal?
Thanks in advance,
Laura

Laura, I've not used Hyperterminal's scripting at all, but I can't think of anything that Hyperterminal should be able to do that Procomm can't, as far as dialup/file transfer functionality. What is keeping you from staying with your existing scripts?

It will not work with the new system that we have to dial into. We've tried everything, they won't say what has changed and there is no longer any support for Procomm anyway. Procomm doesn't work efficiently with all our modems. It appears to be unstable even if we say to run it in an older version of Windows.

What version of Procomm are you running now and under what version of Windows (with Hyperterminal)? If Procomm is configured in the same manner as Hyperterminal (terminal emulation primarily), then I'm not aware of any reason why both programs shouldn't work.
