RS232 Comms

[umka]

Hi

I am new to Mach3 and VB although have done some work in VB6.

I am wanting to send and recieve data through the serial port on my computer to a microcontroller but I read on one of the posts that one cant recieve data through RS232 into Mach3.

Is this true? If not is there some code I can look at to see the commands for send and recieve, setup port, baud, parity etc. I have searched the forum but have not been able to find anything usefull.
