>I understand that ProComm does not work on most XP computers and is being discontinued by Symantec. I don't think PC Anywhere has XModem protocol. We use commtools. At least you don't have to handle the com port or xmodem stuff in your program. It requires writing a fox application around the control. Your fox program becomes the script.<

Ken,

By chance are you uploading electronic claims to WebMD? That is what we are doing. Previously, we were using an older program with Kermit protocol, but it no longer runs on the newer machines.

With CommTools, what kind of a learning curve is there with it? We are on a relatively short timeframe. Can you give me a little bit of insight about the product?

Thanks for the input.

Mike

PS. Ed Raugh... thank you for your input too, at this point I'm leaning towards the pcAnywhere solution, but ComTools sounds intrigueing.
