>I need some help on how to open a port in Visual Foxpro 6.0 Some help in what direction to go or some example code somewhere. I'm trying to send data from a scanner to a port. But it says waiting to connect when I select the option "Transfer Files" from the menu on the scanner.

Well, you could try FOPEN(), FWRITE(), FCLOSE() type of thing, which is really ugly, or you could take a look at the MSCOMM control, which is much better. Try looking at those in the help files, might be of some use to you. Good luck,
