Thanks, but I was just wondering. I am using the .NET serialport class so its easy to use.

The DataView(along with the graphing) has been field tested during the 2007 season. It saved my life, especially when I was trying to debug 3 different robots.

I was actually working on a similar project without a computer interface though. Did a lot of research but never put it into practice. I have done a lot of development on the PICs though.
