          Thanks. Excellent guide. Fell at the first hurdle though as I do although I have a null modem cable, my PC has no RS-232 port. I will have to brin my laptop home from work tomorrow.

              Really depends on the pc, but nowadays most new pc's dont have rs232, and having built several pc's over the years i have never added the rs232 port on any build i have done i used to bin it . Maybe i should have kept them and flogged on fleabay for a few pound..

                Alot of new PC's are the popular SFF (Small Form Factor).
                Very few of them have Serial or LPT ports as they take up alot of room compared to USB.
