Serial Ports cant be shared, just so you know. So if you want the
second
program to use what the first is using, it wont work.

With a software utility you can. You can use Serial Splitter from
www.eltima.com or VirtualPlex-1 from www.shipmodul.com. The latter will
also
allow all applications to talk back to the one serial port. The only
problem
for the OP is that he runs Windows 98. Both utilities only run on NT4,
2000
or XP.

Pretty interesting explanation.

Being a programmer in this example is not enough, they also use a PCI
interface chip to mimic the registers of a serial port. This is a solution
that would even take a few days to weeks for an experienced hardware and
software engineer.

To write an entire software solution, it would take about 2 weeks for an
experienced programmer. And experienced in this case means that he has
experience in writing device drivers in Windows, which is an art on its own.

I tried
Virtual Serial Ports Driver XP 4.0 from Eltima Software
http://www.eltima.com/products/vspdxp/
Platforms "Virtual Serial Ports Driver XP" is compatible with:
Windows XP
Windows NT 4.x
Windows Me
Windows 98
Windows 95
it does not work
greetings

My bad. I told you to search on "virtual serial ports" because the
people who do what you are looking for generally call it that.
GPSGate, VirtualPlex, OckamSoft, and others use the terminology. Even
the Eltima Serial Splitter product refers to the ports it creates as
virtual serial ports. As you've realized, Eltima's VSPD does
something else entirely. The "terminology collision" is unfortunate.

Take a look at cpRepeater, my NMEA data integrator, repeater, and

Maybe the solution is to upgrade to windows 2000
I have a 450 Mhz processor

Definately a good idea. I have had Windows 2000 running on a 450MHz system,
and it was considerably faster than Windows 98 on an 800MHz machine.
