Oh, I did not realize it was much data. Did not read the question thru. Is it maybe possible to use DOS "copy /b COM1: file" (or how it is) command ? Will it exit om CTRL-Z code recieved, switch /b stated? If not, can we end recieving using CTRL-C from keyboard, or if not rin un windows dos-window and kill it from windows? /Morgan At 10:35 1998-02-23 -0800, Rich wrote: >This will double the file size on transfer. > >All that needs to be done is to filter the stream as it is received from the >PIC and display and/or save the characters desired. >A terminal program may have to be created (VB using microsoft's comm control). > >Rich > >At 03:35 PM 2/23/98 +0100, you wrote: >>Why not convert to ASCII-coded hex before transfer? >>/Morgan >> >>At 14:39 1998-02-23 +0100, you wrote: >>>I have written a program which read all adresses in a 24C16 I2C EEPROM and >>>sends the data to a PC via RS232 (8,N,1 1200 Baud).
