If you get it to work, please write about it. I installed the virtual serial drivers for my earthmate, and it had the effect of making it not work for either Maptitude or Delorme software. When I brought up a terminal window on the com port I could see the data scrolling past, so the serial drivers themselves seem to work. I couldn't find a way to install both sets of drivers so that it would work in native mode for delorme and serial for other purposes. Bob ------------------------ Yahoo!
