> Hope that helps. It all helps - to be sure! I have gone back and looked the Roman's deal, and as soon as I put out this week's fires, I'll probably give 'em a try. In this ap I 'll need to incorporate some hardware and another PIC to communicate w/ VB's MSComm and to pass the stepper commands along. I was hoping for one big board. I can envision 3 linisteppers plugged into it now.... -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
