Sure it will -- but it you want to use it as a character in an output you need to enclose it in quotes.· Try this:

DEBUG ","

I realize that can be tricky in some strings of serial data, so what I do is define a contant:

Comma··· CON··· 44

Then I can do this:

· volts = 125
· DEBUG· DEC (volts / 100), Comma, DEC2 volts··· ' display volts Euro-style

Remember that DEBUG is just a specialized version of SEROUT, so these techniques will work in your application.
