A friend of mine is looking to have a turbo pascal program read data from the serial port. Assuming he is using TP 4.0, is this possible? I don't know exactly what he is after, so I am just looking for ideas on how he would do this. I have the manual at home, so if anyone has an idea as to what I would look for, it would be greatly appreciated. Pete -- Peter P. Donohue ppd491@albny1vx.bitnet .

(Contrary to reading parallel ports, reading serial ports will not be uncomplicated.) ...................................................................
