Does anyone know how to communicate with a serial port in Access 2000?
 
What are you trying to do via the serial report?

Think about what Access does in connection with what you're trying to do.
 
It looks as though tou can do this by using the Open, Print# and Input# statements, but instead of:
Open "[filename]" etc....

I think you need:
Open "COM1" etc....

sorry I can't be more help; the online help and knowledgebase is pretty sketchy about it.

For a POS application I wrote different codes to open a cash drawer. Is this what you are looking for?
 
Cash drawer

I am working on the same thing(opening a cash drawer), but know nothing about coding. Could I see a copy of what you wrote or could you explain how its done.
