>We are trying to get FoxPro 2.6 for Windows to read input from a COM port, under Windows 95. FOPEN / FREAD doesn't seem to work, and neither does invoking DOS to copy the COM port input to a text file (although it works under a normal DOS session). Maybe it's a foxrun.pif problem. The baud rate, etc. is setup correctly by MODE. Can anyone help? Please contact us directly via e-mail:

Hi Jorge.
I had the same problem, but in FP Dos (2.6). I used Comet from Compusolve. It is very stable. We have it on a real-time serial interface, running for about 3 years now.
Compusolve phone number is 717-643-1233
