recording outside data

[SFP]

Our company uses scales that continually send weights to a
hyperterminal file. Can anyone tell me if it is possible
to setup a vb program to capture the weight and insert the
data into the active field on a form. Any ideas at all
would be great. Thanks!

not sure i understand you, but if you have data in a file - you can make a
proc which read this file, take value and insert it using
screen.activecontrol
