Serail Terminal Emulator

Can anyone recommend a FREE Serial Terminal Emulator for Windows 98
so that I can configure a Port & Send and Receive Commands. I would
like to use this for designing/prototyping Basic Stamp SERIN & SEOUT
commands. I would also like to be able to send/receive commands to
any RS232 Device such as a Voltmeter or other Meter. My knowledge of
hyperterminal does not allow commands to be used in this way.

I plan on purchasing VB 6 Pro later.

Thanks,
Keith Anderson

    Keith,
    Doesn't Win98 come with Hyperterminal as one of the accessories. I know it
    does come with Win95.

    Does HyperTerminal do COM and Parallel data transmission?? I thought it only
    did phone line stuff.

    You may be interested in the Tip Sheet that Scott Edwards has available
    online at: http://www.seetron.com/lcd_andex.htm

    This tip sheet shows how to configure the program, and lists some known
    peculiarities.

    Scott has plenty of other helpful info on this same page.
