Hi Guys

I think I need a pointer. How do I 'capture' an 'operator'?

When I want a DEC NUM1 sent I can see how [DEC NUM1] receives a decimal number. From the manual WAIT ( ) seems to be the best fit for an 'operator' or maybe something like CHAR " "

Here's a section of the program:

OP VAR BYTE
MAIN:
PAUSE 7000
SEROUT2 PORTC.3, 16780, ["Please send NUM1", 10, 13] 
PAUSE 500
HIGH PORTA.5          'Shows request sent
PAUSE 1000
LOW PORTA.5

PAUSE 250
SERIN2 PORTC.5, 16780, [DEC NUM1]'MODE 16780 = 2400 BAUD INVERTED
PAUSE 500
HIGH PORTA.5          'Shows data arrived
PAUSE 1000
LOW PORTA.5

PAUSE 250
SEROUT2 PORTC.3, 16780, ["Please send Operator + - * /"][WAIT OP( ),]  
PAUSE 500
HIGH PORTA.5          'Shows request sent
PAUSE 1000
LOW PORTA.5

Here's were I'm struggling

SEROUT2 PORTC.3, 16780, ["Please send Operator + - * /"][WAIT OP( ),]
