Thanks Jack, I actually tried Hyperterminal first with no luck but i didnt
do it like u explained, ill give that another try. I thought there may be
an
easy app to do it simpler.

Hyperterminal is crap. In 90% of the cases you start it when data comes in
on the comport. it says "cannot open com port". Then, if you need to change
comm parameters, you have to disconnect first, change the parameters and
connect again. And then there is this thing that you need to define a
connection first.

Do a google search for TeraTerm and you get a no-nonsense always working
terminal program.
