Read Com 4

[leemitchell]

I have a Labview 7.1.1 VI reading Com 4 pulsing a MS access macro to inport a text data string. I would like to replace to VI and read the Com 4 port directly thru code. My serial port name is Com 4, Baudrate 9600, Parity none, Databits 8, stopbits 1 the VI pulses a macro called macrotxt which imports the data. I would like to keep the code as simple as possible.

It's worth taking a look at this URL to learn about serial port communication using Access:

I have used the serial interface in Access in the past, but too long ago to remember enough to instruct you sadly.
