Write a program that takes the printf() transmissions and logs them in a file. Like he said, VB (or VBA if your desperate) and MSCOMM should do the trick. I have a feeling (don't quote me on this) that if you set it to text mode, the receive buffer should be whatever is sent. But I haven't tested this hunch (yet).
