José,

I think you're using a recent version of Fivewin.

I suggest you try with a previous version, (17.04 or earlier), to check whether the problem is in Fivewin.

Hi Jack, I don't use the library you're using, so let's go for trial... The Readcomm function expects Cbuffer as: A string variable supplied by reference where ReadComm() will place the read bytes. The length of the initial supplied value specifies the wished number of bytes to be read.You may use, ...

>>ReadComm( nComm, @cBuffer ) // <<<<---- program will lock here
>>Msginfo( AllTrim( cBuffer ))

Excuse me, but I do not understand how from these lines, if you run only once, can result two msginfo...

In any way, what is the total string?

In the first post, you say that the example Testcom3 returns two msginfo, and it is just so: first the status, then the text received. If you don't need the status, delete it. >> What is the right way to read all the info from a COM port . It's difficult/simple to answer the question. In fact you re...

Houve alguma mudança na sua rede?

Você está usando TData ou Tdatabase?

------------------
Have there been any changes in your network?

Are you using Tdata or Tdatabase?

I use xHarbour.com, before I used FWH 17.04 and now FWH 18.02

Unfortunately I do not have time to extrapolate a simple test, but, as I said, no changes in the procedure was made and until 17.04, ie before the update to 18.02, everything proceeded well and fast. I have reported this situation so that Darrell can find elements in common or not... I look forward ...

I may have the same problem as Darrell. After going from 17.04 to 18.02, I provided an update to a customer and reported a significant slowdown in the application. I do not have for now other info, nor ideas, since the update did not change any of the procedures that the customer has reported to me....

Oscar,

I do not think I understood the problem well, but reading the function Mandar_enq seems to try 10 times to send a string...

What I can tell you is that you do not have to send the string, but the sequence char (02) + char (30) + char (30) +....

Oscar, You do not want to use the factory counter application, but it is precisely that application that has been prepared to communicate as a server with clients. If you don't use it, how do you plan to converse with the counter? What do you think there is on the counter that you answer? As an exam...

First, your PC and the counter must be connected to your local network.
At that point, following the instructions of the counter, you can connect to the server using login and password, port and IP of the instrument.

Start doing this.

Jack,
You have to use a socket.
Typically, the instrument is the client, and your software is the server.
Then follow the instructions in the interface manual.

James,

I'm sorry but at the line
>> oStates:GoTop() // oStates is now using the workarea of oCust. No error.

I get an error DBCMD/2001 Workarea non in use: DBGOTOP

I'm using TDatabase 17.04 with old Close Method

James, I am trying only my test, which first opens a dialog with a single TDatabase object, closes it, opens a dialog with a dbf, then closes it. Trying several times, even at random, no error. Using MsgInfo msgInfo(oStates:nArea,"oStates:nArea"), adapted to my test, after closing the data...

Are you saying that you edited ver 17.04 TDatabase.prg and replaced the Close() method with the one from TDatabase 17.07? Yes. Also, remember that no error doesn't mean that something hasn't gone wrong. Note that if you are using TData then it overrides the Close() method of TDatabase. James I used...
