(I tried writing E-mail to you, but I don't think it made it)

Thanks for the info, but due to a restriction in Windows, VB only supports
4 serial ports, where my application need to access to 24.  Supposedly, ARNET's
comm driver supports 32 (?) by using some kind of switching.

Thanks again for replying.
