David, > Thanks Glenn for answering my question ! You are right, i need to do > both( input and output ). So you told me that i may need to use the > Windows API,but i haveno ideia how to do that ! Please could you > tell me how ? Because i am a beginner in this subject ! Check Delphi help for "OpenFile". This topic should reference the Windows API function for opening a file. I haven't tried this approach with a device opened for Input/Output, but this is where I would start since it is likely to be the simplest approach. You might get better help from the list on this if describe (briefly) what it is you are trying to do. When you say you want both input and output via the LPT port, it sounds like you are trying to control some device that is not a printer. If, on the other hand, you are trying to control a printer that talks back through the LPT port, there are specific API calls that address virtually all the printer issues.
