- Has anyone used the communications control (MSCOMM) supplied with VB4 in a
- VC++4 application by importing thru component gallery? Specifically,
- please shed some light on what the SetOutput() function is expecting as
- its input parameter. I know it needs a type VARIANT reference, but how do
- you specify the data that is to be transmitted thru the COMx port? A bonus
- question.. why is the VARIANT type specified at all? A code snippet and a
- copy to my e-mail would be appreciated.
