>>Has anyone out there had to communicate with mscomm between the computer and a scale for weighing packages? I did this in FoxPro and remember at the time, when I was looking for code samples all I could find were VB samples. Now of course, I need VB code samples and can't find any anywhere. Can anyone point me in the right direction here?
