i can say i've done a lot of serial in 5.5 and 200x and have seen none of these hanging probs. haven't used with any ftdi based devices. how are you doing writes? you .write -ing the whole chuck at once?

I'm writing strings, one at a time like this:

Serial1.write ChrB(ValueToSend)

where ValueToSend is a string representing an integer with a value in the range of 0 to 127.

Every time my listbox's row changes, it send out 64 of these commands. Packaging them together might improve things - at least it would require a whole lot less searching by the OS to find the device! I haven't done it that way because each of the 64 pieces of data might have to be sent to other places rather than this one particular serial device. I suppose that I could "separate" the data first and then dump it all at once to the various receivers. Worth a try.

Thanks,
