Hello Billy,

Billy>>the computer sends a string S1234567E
S representing the start E end bits
If I wanted to put 123 in variable B0 and 4567 in B1 how would I go about this<<

is the stringlength always going to be the same?

a Start . 3char . 4char . End situation?

You could read it in a Array of Character and convert when the array is through...

Something like..


counter=0;
initalize Array[counter] to null.
while counter<>7 and Array[counter]<>"E"
Serin Pin, Array[counter]
counter ++
Wend

if Array[7]!="E" then bad data.
process your data....of good data.
