This group I think was create for compiler / cpp language problems. Second, I think that WM_CHAR is sent to the window that has focus. What you may need to do is set up a system for redirecting messages so that they are processed in the class that you find convenient. Third, If you are just trying to test serial communications, why not read from a file? Fourth, If all is lost, you could upload your project to attachments or a web site and let the snarling masses take a look see. Hope that helps or at lest amuses, Gary . 0
