Hello Tracy,
What if you're building something like:
lcString = '[' + thisform.text1.value + ']'
thisform.zOcx.Send(lcString+CHR(13)+CHR(10))
>Ok, it's Friday. Must be why I can't see the forest...
>
>I can
programmatically pass information correctly to a bluetooth device using this format (the format is the bluetooth device's programming language syntax):
>
>lnBytes = thisform.zOcx.Send([! U1 GETVAR "bluetooth.authentication"]+CHR(13)+CHR(10))
>
>That succeeds. However, if I type
>
>! U1 GETVAR "bluetooth.authentication"
>
>in a textbox and try this:
>
>lnBytes = thisform.zOcx.Send(thisform.text1.value+CHR(13)+CHR(10))

>it fails. So does passing single quotes or square brackets. I need to pass a value INSIDE double quotes taken from a value typed in the textbox and pass the double quotes in the string. Any ideas? What obvious thing am I missing this time? :o)
