To THE guys.... What the reason/need for this is when we file insurance files, we send the printed paper stuff. Over the years the companies have wanted the data to be sent to them over the phone (modem). Now it is not that they are recommending, they are saying yes or else. The data will need to be transmitted and of course the modem will need to know if their modem answers and if it is taking the data....after it is transmitted they will then transmit some data for confirmation.... Obviously their computers are PC, but that is not important....we just need to transmit data to the other part of the state. Zterm, I did download and look at....but it does not show me how to do the information stuff....the data transfer will have to be in my/our program. Yes, I have looked at Masakazu Nakao's code...nice but not quite to that stage yet.... Not that anyone would be interested but at some point I would have no problems sharing my program with the GREAT guys. The dummy, Terrald J. Smith
