Can someone direct me to any tutorials or source code for programming a serial port in C. Note NOT C++. I can find loads on C++, Turbo C and VB etc but nothing in C!!
Thanks

It depends on your operating system. On Pre-Windows 2000 you can use straight C, but if you're in W2k or newer you will need to use a driver (or write your own with MS DDK)
