I'm am trying to get turboc 1.5 to interface with a serial port using BIOSCOM. It seems that bioscom doesn't actually send (or receive) the data that I request or send. Is this a problem with the version I'm running? Any help would be appreciated. I was sure to include the stdio.h, bios.h, and dos.h (just in case). The syntax I used is shown below: int q,d; char ch; ... /* Send a byte */ bioscom (1,ch,2); ... I know that the COM2 port works, as I have a modem installed and working. Please mail replies directly to me. Thanks.

Thanks. I forgot to include that I HAD set up the COM port for the correct line settings in an earlier BIOSCOM command (although I'm not sure that worked either).
