jellis00, The comma separated variables are generated in the 18F2620. The terminal program I use for all of my communications is TeraTermPro.exe. It is free ware and the BEST terminal program I have found. It allows you to open multiple instances and has all of the features to emulate VT-100 and ANSI commands. I mearly turn on the log function and then send the 18F2620 the command to dump the array data. After the data is downloaded I close the log file and the file is then ready to be inported into Excel...
