[DevelopV]

Using Access 2010

How do I send the command "^G" to a device conencted via serial port (RS-232) number 3?

Many thanks

Did you try to use the "COM3:" device ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

no, because I don't know how too!

I'm not sure if it's compatible with MS Access forms, but you could try looking into the MSComm control. This will allow you to interact with COM ports.

We could be confused in exactly the same way, but confusion might be like Nulls, and not comparable.
