The question is: where can I find a working driver that do that? I'm sure that many people before me needed that and already wrote the driver so I don't have to write it by myself, where can I find this driver? Can you give me a direct link please? Thanks very much.

Thanks very much. I have not used RapidDriver but it might be worth looking into. http://www.entechtaiwan.net/dev/rapid/index.shtm Tom Woodrow Back to top Shon Guest Posted: Wed Oct 04, 2006 9:56 pm    Post subject: Re: How do I start USB communication Thanks very much, looks like a good start-point, although that even this doesn't look so easy, it's not just a copy-paste code that I can copy to my application, is it the easiest solution?

It is free, easy and quite good Jarek U¿ytkownik "Shon" <Shon2006 (AT) USB (DOT) com> napisa³ w wiadomo¶ci news:4523d605$1 (AT) newsgroups (DOT) borland.com...
