Can excel be used to collect incoming ASCII data through a com port?

Thanks,
Tho
 
tt,

Yes, though I don't know much about it.

I just did a google search using the words, data acquisition rs232 excel.

http://www.taltech.com/ is one example.

" Input RS232 data directly into Excel, Access, or any Windows application.
WinWedge provides real-time data collection from any serial device or
instrument. TCP-Wedge software provides data collection from any TCP/IP
network. Send and receive RS232 data across a TCP/IP port with TCP/Com
serial to TCP/IP converter software."

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Kevin
 
Yes, at least with a macro. In the macro you need to use the Shell command
to run a QBasic program that collects the data from the com port.

HTH, Greg
