Thanks in advance for reading my query.
Here's what I'm trying to do: I have a device attached to a serial port
that will transmit data to an active Access 2000 database (cursor is on the
field waiting for the data from the device).
I've already written a VB program that will read from the device. However,
I'm at a loss as how to get the data from the VB program into the field on
the Access form.
Is there a way for the VB program to print to the active window (in this
case, the Access 2000 database)? Are there any alternatives? (Writing
directly to the database is not an option since the key information is not
known from the VB program).
Thanks again.
