Hello, I am writing a excel sheet to allow input from a scale machine that connects via serial port (aka com1). After that a product is scanned with a bar code, then Excel jumps to another box where the weight is needed from the scale. I need to make an addition to my Visual B. part to allow this to happen, but I have never used VB with an interface b4. Here is the code I have so far:

The only command that needs to be sent to the scale is the letter "P" for print. That will tell the scale to send the weight information to the computer. After that I need the cursor to go back to the next row, like a type writer type deal. Thanks a lot guys and if I didn't explain myself good enough let me know and ill try to word it differently....its a hard one for myself...haha
