Hello, Apologies for the semplicity of the question (or the banality) but I don't really have a clue about it. The problem. I have an application which reads data from a serial port (say com2). The data comes from a remote site, so I have to dial in. How do I dial in to a remote modem and allow applications read the data the comes on that port ? Hyperterminal, for instance, takes off the port so your application won't see that port. The question: Is it possible to use any modem command from DOS to tell the modem to dial in without taking the port off ? Thanks a lot in advance. C. e-mail: crisg AT tibco DOT com --
