I read in the Win32s manual with the March Beta, that MS do not intend supporting serial comms with win32s. If this is still the case, how can I best write a serial comms app under win32s? If it will help, I have LOTS of code for direct serial access under DOS and dos extenders. There is 1 Reply.

Stephen, Place your DOS/Windows Comm access functions in a DLL and the use the Universal Thunks to load and access this DLL from your Win32s application. You can then use these functions for your comm calls. For Windows NT have a different DLL that uses the Win32 Comm API's to perform the same functionality.
