I am writing a communications program that requires transmitting null characters through the comm port. MSComm.ocx wants a Variant for SetOutput. How can I copy or cast null characters into the Variant Data Type for transmitting? I have tryed many different methods without success including modifying the VCTERM program sample.

Look into COleVariant. Suppose you needed to pass the Variant as an argument you could:
foo(COleVariant("Hello"
,COleVariant(7)...)
FYI: the variant is limited to 255 characters.
