Receiving Info from the Com port

[crazyray314159]

I'm currently working with several machines in the lab that connect to the computer through Com ports. I can open these com ports with the OPEN COM command, and I can send commands through the port. However, when the machine that I'm sending commands to returns a signal, I'm not able to view it or anything. Is there anyway for me to somehow display or save signals that come through the Com ports from an outside source? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
