Back in 2005 Jon uploaded this program to work with VB 6. Is there anyone that knows how to convert it to VB 2008? Thanks if you can help.

    Hi, this thread explains how to set up communications between a Stamp and VB 2008 in a fairly simple manner. I have since thought of several ways it could have been done better but there is enough information there to get you up and running

    This worked great. What an easy way to communicate with the stamp. Solves a lot of my issuses!!! Is there a way to port this to Visual C# 2008? Also, Is it possible to change the Baud rate? If so, How to you figure out the numbers for the various Baud rates? Thanks for the post. It is a HUGE help.

    One other thing, Is it possible to have the Port automatically cleared, say for instance the button is not pressed in x amount of seconds?

    OK, So I was able to modify the code to work in Visual C# 2008. If anyone needs it let me know and I can post it.

    All I need to know now is if it is possible to change the Baud rate and how you go about converting the Baud rate to a number that PBasic can interpret.

    So how easy would it be to modify this code to actually control a Boe Bot or other functions on the BS2? I am playing around with it now to see what I can make it do, but thought I would see if anyone has any code already written that I could play around with. Thanks.
