    On the Stamp side you will use the SEROUT and SERIN commands to send and receive serial information.

    · On the VB side you will generate the the text and graphics you want and use the MSCOMM functions to open/control the computer's serial port.

    · This is not a trivial exercise but is a very valuable learning experience.

    · A simple interface and graphics demo is available at http://www.siskconsult.com·· Goto the Downloads page.

    · There are some great VB programmers on the Forum. Post your progress and I'm sure you'll receive feedback.

    ·Cheers,
