As Guy as mentionned in his post, I can only use MSComm in a form to do that. I will use a form then, but it will never show.

Thanks

>seems like once you've done a CreateObject we should be able to do it... What if you dropped it on a form created your code. Removed it from the form did the create object naming your object the same moving the event code to your module where you create the object... I guess for all that you could use a form that is loaded but not shown....
