Simple_Serial driver problem

Computer Geek 101

I have a strange problem.· If I start Simple_Serial and read one character from a computer, its fine.· If I read two or more the characters I get are wrong.· ie.· I send· one letter "a" it will echo the letter "a".· If I send "a" then another "a" I get "a" and a random character.· If I start and stop the Simple_Serial driver between reads its fine.· Attached is a working example.· I have used the driver before without this problem.· Any ideas as to what can cause this?· Thanks for the help.
