Hello,
Does any one know how to use a serial port on a notebook computer to receive IRDA send by an sx using VB 6.0?
Thanks,
Curtis

    So what you're saying is you have created a nice picture of a form but have no code for it.· If you're going to offer answers, provide the code to back it up.· Your link has nothing to do with the picture and form you posted.

    Hmm...
    Does the program compile the code to PBASIC and send it to the BS2, or does it compile to Assembly?

    After compiling the Pbasic to boebot, then reset boebot. Then run the code on vb.
    Vb then communicate with your boebot.

    AND we got:

    · What the who?· Who the what?

    · Where's the program, man?·
    · Is it in the Batwave or the Twilight Zone?

    I created my own VB program for my Boe-Bot from the example http://www.rentron.com/sending_data.htm that Batman used.· I'm not a·VB·or PBasic expert, but these programs work.·

    Load the Pbasic program to your stamp and then run the VB program.· You will have to set the COM Port accordingly for your PC.· I used COM Port 4·for mine,·which is noted in the VB program.·

    I attached bs2 code, VB .vbp and .frm.· I also included VB .exe which works directly with the bs2 code.
