Hi! I'm trying to write a simple terminal
program in QBASIC. I've managed to get
the COM port set up and can get the
program to dial. I'm having problems
getting data from the modem. Every time
I use the get command (GET #22,t) I
get a bad record error. I think it's
because at the time I get the data
there is nothing to get. I tried using
the ON COM GOSUB routine. It goes to
my GET command I still get the same
error though.
Any Suggestions?
