read com1 information to table

[Brian]

I need to read data of a serial port device on com1 and
update diplayed data triggered by new data. What code
will allow me to do this.

Thanks

Brian

I don't know (have never tried it), but, can you open & read a serial port
using the normal file reading & writing commands? (OPEN, INPUT, GET, etc.)

open "COM1:", ...
input ... line input ... ?

HTH,
