I have a four-port card & I need to access these additional ports from within my Future Basic program. I have the driver installed, but Future BASIC doesn't have a command to open CIn, COut, DIn, DOut, EIn, EOut, FIn, and FOut. I need to configure these ports for 9600 baud, open them, and then get and receive data. If someone can just provide me with a code snippet to OPEN them, I think I could use all the standard FB II commands such as LOF(x) and PRINT with them, just as I presently do with the modem & printer ports. This is for an industrual controls application. Thanks in advance, ---- Frank Seipel Don't Steal; Government hates the competition fseipel@... (614) 478-2886
