>Dear All,

>There existed a very nice third party communications library for FP2.6 that allowed you to read from and send strings to a COM port that was called Silverfox. We need to do something similar now in VFP8 and this Silverfox does not exist anymore. Is there anybody who knows if there is a a similar product for VFP on the market, or can you do without it in VFP itself?
