Basic Stamp Tokenizer Program

Hello All,

I'm working on a Visual Basic 6 program that will control my BASIC Stamp 2 through the serial port but I also want to be able to have my program upload the software to the Stamp so that I can "upgrade the firmware" when needed. I believe that the basic stamp tokenizer library can be used for this but I was wondering if anyone here knows of any VB6 program examples or tutorials out there showing how to do this?

Thanks,
Jason O

    Hello again,

    I still haven't been able to find any information on the library for use with VB. Is there a utility program or something out there that will download the code to the basic stamp besides the PBasic software?

    Thanks,
    Jason O

    You have to declare the functions and the transfer space for the contents of the library dll.
    A good starting point for this is at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa243324(VS.60).aspx
    I'm assuming you've downloaded and gone through the tokenizer manual from parallax.

    Jason,

    I am looking to do exactly the same thing as you. Were you ever able to get the code working in VB6? If so, any tips would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Jon

    Hi Jon , you don't need the Tokenizer library to download a program to the Stamp via VB6, this was Jason's aim is it yours too or is your aim to create an IDE / compiler .
