Hi All,

Is there any way to detect the baud rate of a device connected to the
serial port?  I can't use direct hardware access in assembler because
the program has to run on NT.

I am trying to automatically detect and setup a barcode printer.

I can detect devices using GetCommModemStatus and looking for the CTS
flag.

Thanks Stu
