You can use the serial manager on the palm (not too difficult to set up),
and on the PC use an activeX control (e.g VBs MSCOMM, or the one that comes
with VCL).
Things that you need to decied are:
either use a character to determine the end of the data (e.g CR, or ESC)
or
use a protocol system, so a 'message' has n number of bytes
Keep the baud rates and serial settings the same.
Make sure you have a timeout function, so the palm and PC are not contiously
waiting for each other.
