·· I have a controler/logger that runs my computer cooling system.· I have a DOS BAT file that echos the time and date to com3 on the start·of windows·then·exits.
Time /t > com3
Date /t > com3
echo DateTime > com3
Time /t > com3
Date /t > com3
This works on the BOE-Com but NOT on the USB-BOE.·· The·problem is·the FTDI USB-Com driver/DLL will not start·from a DOS box.· If I open PBasic edit program"or any program that will access a com port"·then close it and run my DOS program it works fine.·· Would anyone be interested in creating a small VC or VB program to do this?·· MSG me to work out some kind of trade/pay...

1) The Format of time and date is it HH:MM + DD/MM/YYYY ?
2) Will you ever change your USB Com port or will it stay on com3?
3)I will need you to tell me a rough routine i.e in what order you want data sent to com3 and how many times because your batch needs a little more explanation!
