hi
i want to read and send data on my COM Port. for this i want to use MSCOMM.OCX
I placed OCX control from the tool pallet on my form of forms6. in the properties of the OCX item i selected the MSCOMMLib.MSComm.1 libtrary from its collection of classes then i right clicked on the OCX item and selected the Microsoft Communication Control from the insert object window of the OCX item.
OCX item shows a telephone shaped object on my OCX Item.
I also find the trigger ON-DISPATCH-EVENT and found the following code there
DECLARE
eventname VARCHAR2(32767) := :system.custom_item_event;
BEGIN
message(eventname);
message(eventname);
IF eventname = 'EVENT1' THEN
-- Code for OnComm
NULL;
ELSE
message('Unknown Event: ' || eventname);
end if;
END;
Now how to use the properties of this MSCOMM Object. and how will i reference the object i placed on the form.
Any Suggestions or any tip will be really appreciated.
regards
Farhan Ashraf
