I try to write into com2 (there is one Posiflex Pole Display for Cash Register whict connect to com2)
and I'm using VFP 5.0 for my POS Application.

The command in Dos is Like this :
Procedure Disp_str
parameters line1, line2
line1= line1 + Space(20)
line1= Left(line1, 20)
line2= line2 + Space(20)
line2= Left(line2, 20)
comm_name= "COM2"
xopen= fopen(comm_name, 1)
if (ferror() != 0)
return .F.
endif
dispchr= line1 + line2
if (fwrite(xopen, dispchr, Len(dispchr)) <= 40)
for c= 1 to Len(Trim(dispchr))
=fwrite(xopen, Chr(9), 1)
next
=fclose(xopen)
return .F.
endif
=fclose(xopen)
return .T.


What should I do to Convert that program into VFP5.0 ?

Thank's
