Hi, I am new to this , please bear with me

I want to manually open a Comm port with a Button ( no problem this I can do )
The comm port is connected to a Barcode Reader, which outputs 11 character long 
strings, one per item scanned
With the comm port open the operator will scan several items
I will capture each string into an array
When he is finished scanning, he will touch another Button to close the Comm 
Port, and end the scanning operation.

My problem is how to have a Do Loop check a Button on each loop

I am in a loop checking the comm buffer count value, and waiting for input from 
the barcode scanner. In this loop I also tried checking the value of a 
variable. ( the variable would be changed from 0 to 1 by a Click event). It 
appears that the variable is not examined while in the loop. 

Would a UpdateScreen

I have searched the forum for Click Events and no luck

Any help is appreciated
