David:

Set up a new Hyperterminal session. Put in any phone number, but don't
connect. Go to the File:Properties selection and set the Connect Using
drop down list to your correct com port. Click on Configure and set the
baud & bit stuff to match the com routines you programmed into your PIC
(Whoops! You did do that first..)

Now the undocumented trick. Several (not all) of the changes you can
make in the Configure menu don't take effect until you exit and restart
the hyperterminal session. I can never remember which ('cause I don't
use it, really, except to tell customers how to check our equipment is
connected) so I always just exit and restart when I make any change.

You probably want to turn off the hardware handshaking unless you've
wired your project for it.
