I wrote several VB5 ans VB6 programs that dialed the telephone (Port 3). They worked well using Windows 98 and a US Robotics modem. They do not work in Windows XP and an INTEL 537EP modem. the coding is:

comOne.CommPort = 3
comOne.Settings = "9600,N,8,1"
comOne.PortOpen = True
comOne.Output = "ATDT" & A$ & vbCr

The error is "Port not open"

Using MScomm1.CommPort=3 etc. the error is an "object" error.

What do I do? Dell is no help at all.
