Capture & save data strings from serial port.

Post by mydave » Sun Jul 15, 2007 1:49 am

I have a device connected and captured data strings from serial port.
The device has its own application that display the data.
I could also use hyperterminal to display the data as well.
But I really need to capture and save the string data in a text file automatically, then close the text file.
That would enable me to use MacroScheduler to scan for the text file, read and import into database, then delete the text file.
Can MacroScheduler capture data strings from serial port and save to a file? If so, how?
Thanks
