Hi
I need to send a chr(255) to a serial port, in VB.Net 2005 Express with
Framework 2.0
When I send it, the machine on the other side receives a chr(63) ... why
does this happen, and how can I make it send the actual chr(255) I need ?

Thanks for an answear, this one is turning me crazy ... with the framework
1.1 it did work.

Mike

You're right Mike ... sorry for the out-of-topic post, guess I didn't notice
the lack of the .Net :$

Thanks for the attention :)
