COM PORTS QUERY

In a general way I present a conundrum to the blitz community... Can Blitz3d (or BMax or B2D even...) open a COM PORT (RS232) and send and listen for info???

I think there's some DLLs knocking around to handle this kind of stuff.

I couldn't really see anything in the ToolBox... I have been knocking around there... Maybe I missed something?

I think they're in the code arcs.

[edit] Here's one:

Rook, Check your mail

I recommend the link that big10p posted. It uses built in windows stuff to do the job.

Thanks BoomBoom!
