Since I write software for PABX integration which involves capturing and processing SMDR data, then I would agree with Michael, Apro is the way to go for serial data.<br>Fo the TCP/IP stuff, I ididnt use Indy and use something else, but the data streams are normally the same between serial and TCP/IP, its just how is received thats different.<br>

quite slowly, its capturing the output data from a PABX to get office
phone call info, so 1 every few seconds is likely. PABX has a serial
output option with a fixed format, no buffering - it just outputs the
data as calls end. There is commercial software to do this with
database and reports, but in this case all they want is to capture the
data for further processing at the end of the day...</font></div>
