Hi John,


thank you very much for your suggestions, but workarounds are no 
options. I cannot force anyone to buy extra hardware, so that he/she can 
use my software!

Actually, there are douzens of programs that usually use a not very 
intelligent driver to use with the same device at the same time via 
serial connection. My program is much more sophisticated, and shall 
replace the driver. For this reason, it must provide the well-known 
interfaces, including (virtual) RS232 ports.


Thom
