hi,
i would like to call hyperterminal function from vb.net, how do i do that?
for example I using hyperterminal to transfer file between pc through
modem, so now i would like to controll it in my program .
 
Hi,

I do not think this is possible. HyperTerminal does not expose an ActiveX
object interface.

However, it is fairly easy to implement automated file transfers. I have
several examples in my book. See below. One of these ways is to use the
XMCommCRC.ocx that you can download from my homepage (code in the book
illustrates both Host and Remote programs that implement error-checked file
transfers). Another is to use a commercial add-on, like Sax Comm Objects
..NET (I have similar example code it the book that illustrates this, too).
You can get information on Sax Comm from www.saxsoft.net.
