[HELP] setting buffer lenght in MSCOMM

Hi,I have a program to read data using Microsoft Communication Control(MSCOMM). I want to set the buffer input length of 1 byte. but it can't run.
this is my program :

Code:

---

        m_comm.SetCommPort(12);
        m_comm.SetSettings("9600,N,8,1");
        m_comm.SetInputLen(1); // read 1 byte data
        m_comm.SetRTSEnable(FALSE);
        m_comm.SetRThreshold(0);
        m_comm.SetInBufferSize(1); // setting input buffer lenght
        m_comm.SetPortOpen(true);

---

Do you have a solution?

Define "can't run".

Yes, I do.
Just get rid of MSCOMM. Use Windows APIs (or better, some free MFC classes like in http://www.flounder.com/serial.htm) instead.

In addition to Victors post, here's another class you can use for comm communication.

And here is another one, CSerialPort from PJ Naughter: http://www.naughter.com/serialport.html

At the site I linked to (i.e., at http://www.naughter.com/serialport.html ). Did you even bother to look at it?
