More info:
Okay, with the MSComm control, it sends the data, but it must be changing something. Basically, an F2 on Wyse 50 emulation will refresh the screen we are working with. If I send it using low level manipulation, it refreshes the screen, but if I send it using the MSComm control, it just prints the control characters on the string. Can anyone offer any help on this? Thanks again,
John
