Dear sachindn,<br><br>&gt; So u will have use sockets.<br><br>That is an erroneous statement. You cannot transmit data on a serial port using sockets unless the TCPIP stack is connected to the sieral port which is usually NOT the case.<br><br>-pete

Dear ric998812,<br><br>As ZBuilder stated there are some differences between Win16 and Win32, if you are dealing with Win32, go to msdn.microsoft.com and read this article, you can also download a sample working appication from this article.<br><br><A HREF="

you want Win16 you will need to search around MSDN to find an old article related to that.<br><br>Good luck<br>-pete
