Hi,
You have all prob heard this loads before, but im struggling with the MSCOMM component in vb.net.
Im a relatively new programmer, but i understand the basics.
My task is to write a program to capture ASCII data from the comport and put it on the screen. At the moment im struggling pretty badly! I have been able to get the comEvRecieve to work, and run a case statement, but this is where it goes wrong.
I cannot get the ascii to display on the screen - I use
txtbox1.text = timestring & " - " & txtbox1.text & RXmessage & VbCrLf
However it comes up as
hh/mm/ss -
then a few seconds later another line. So it is working when a com event is recieved, but it isnt displaying the data...
Anybody got any ideas or code that i can pinch!?
Please help - would be much appreciated!!
Cheers - Tom
