MSComm32.ocx from COM port to COM port

[balak yap]

Hello;
I am familiar with vc++ and vb, but this is the 1st time i play around with mscomm32.ocx.
I would like to write a program that allow 2 PCs to communicate via com port. But too bad
what i get from net and books are examples for 1 PC and modem. Any one can give me example
program that use MsComm32.ocx to perform communication between 2 PC via com port.
In VC++ or VB.
Thanks

Sorry but not exactly what u asked for....

Hi,
Yes it is possible. Infact i had written one which will interact with itself and tested ofcourse across two pcs also.

The listener is a VC++ client which open the com port using OpenFile and the sender is a VB program communication using comm control. Unfortunately my present machine is different from that one. and i really have to check if that code still exits.
But it is possible!

If you are using vb6.0 there is a sample application called vbterm. You can demonstrate a connection on one machine by running two instances of this application setup for com1, com2 using a null cable modem looped back from com1, com2. You can send files back and forth and type.
