<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello All,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have to receive serial communications from a
scanner and compare it to the data that was just printed. I have
downloaded a few different bits of software from <A
href="http://www.planet-source-code.com">www.planet-source-code.com</A> that
all work to a lesser or greater extent.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Basically, at this stage I can receive data from
the serial port. However, the client is happy to purchase an OCX or some
other such tools to enhance the reliability of this project. There are a
few utilities out there for between Euro 100 and Euro 500. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The purpose of this email is to ask you guys have
you used any such tools or utilities and if so, would you care to pass on the
details?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>To state my question again, I can listen to the
serial port now, but I just wondered was there some brialliant piece of software
that I simply should not ignore.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>As usual,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thanks in advance for your time and
attention,</FONT></DIV>
