It would probably be good if you told us what problems you are having. but if charsP is a pre-existing string that you want to copy, you would need to do: MemPtrNew(sizeof(Char) * (StrLen(charsP) + 1)) The '+1' is for the null at the end of the string. Best, Colin -Original Message-

What effect does byte ordering have on serial communication? Not much. If you try to send an UInt16 as 2 bytes you will get a problem (if the other end works reversed). Just send it as a text string then. Even better, write/use the requisite functions to define a consistient ordering
