My bet is the same that Joe already wrote - probably a problem with the signaling lines (DSR/DTR and RTS/CTS), and surely not with the encoding.

If you have an old modem lying around, one that has status lights for the DSR/DTR lines etc., try connecting that to the terminal emulator, and see which lights are on; then try your own app, and look for differences.

Also make sure that you're not making a mistake like "Serial1.Bits = 8, Serial1.Baud = 9600", because those values are all set using constants (e.g. 8, or Serial.Baud9600, for 9600 baud).

Cheers,

My brain is still stuck on some encoding problem, which I really know little
about, but I can't think of any other reason it wouldn't be doing it
correctly with such a simple command. I did notice in the RB lang ref, in the "Text Converter" section there is an encoding called "MacVT100". Though,
when trying to use it to convert an editfield's string I get an
error...again, I really have no clue - and just remember VT100 from the old
(old) days.
