SComm32 OCX is an ActiveX component (OCX) that software developers can add to the tool box of their development environment in place of Microsoft's MSComm32 component.

Developers using Visual basic 6 and many other similar environments such as Office/VBA can use SComm32 to quickly add Serial Communications capabilities to software projects in 32 and 64bit versions of Windows 10, Windows 8, 7, Vista and XP.

SComm32 has the same property names, methods and syntax as the now unsupported MSComm32 so, in many cases, it takes just a minute or two to add our SComm32 component to a project in place of MSComm32 without needing to change any of your code or learn any new syntax.

SComm1.CommPort = 23 '// Use Any Com Port SComm1.Settings = "9600,n,8,1" '// Setup the Com Port SComm1.PortOpen = True '// Open the Port     SComm1.Output = "Hello World" '// Send some data     Do While SComm1.InBufferCount > 0) '// Is there any incoming data?     Text1.Text = Text1.Text & SComm1.Input '// Receive Data Loop       SComm1.PortOpen = False '// Close the port.       '// Simple ?

SComm1.CommPort = 23 '// Use Any Com Port SComm1.Settings = "9600,n,8,1" '// Setup the com port SComm1.PortOpen = True '// Open the port   SComm1.Output = "Hello World" '// Send some data Do While SComm1.InBufferCount > 0) '// is there any incoming data?     Text1.Text = Text1.Text & SComm1.Input Loop   SComm1.PortOpen = False '// Close the port   '// Simple ??
