Reading data from COM ports

[Dharminder Singh]

Hi Sarah,

I was googling yesterday to find out how to read data from 2 COM ports and
saw
that you some scripts which can read and send data.

My requirement is:

I have a PC with 2 com ports. There is a set of scales on com1 and a barcode
reader on com2. Basically All I want is a simple app which will

open com1

read the data

close com1

open com2

read the data

close com2


And then want to use that data from analysis.

Do you think your scripts can help me out. If so,please send them across.

Many thanks
Dee
