DL> There is no string; only the word; CONNECT Well... Technically "CONNECT" is a string... :-) This sounds to me like a fossil problem/telix setup mismatch somewhere. Are you using a DOS/Win95 Fossil? Do you have telix 3.51 (which added fossil support) using the fossil? Is the fossil allowing other *DOS* programs to access the port? I've just installed telix 3.22 here and it works 100% with the modem. Make sure that EVERYTHING is set to the same speed. Say, 57,600 for a locked speed in the fossil (if used), telix terminal settings, dialing directlry and Windows Modem setup. SOMETIMES mismatches can cause odd things to happen. Keep giving us info, as this will help track down the cause.

It's just that it would be nice to know what's going on. And as suggested I am also trying window based prgms. Final Note: I've try the suggestion of Luc; I've run modemcfg and use the configuration for the GVC 9600/14400; The connect speed writen is 38800 The only thing that has changed: Init String: AT&F2 (everything else has gone) I also notice that the Autobaud detect is now OFF Surprise: everything works fine!!!!! But I don't know why. As suggested I will also try window based prgms Den --- Blue Wave/DOS v2.30 * Origin: Juxtaposition BBS.

Here's one way. if (fileattr(d:\comm\up\hbeat131.rep") > 0) goto dodial ; looks in the upload directory for a reply packet, and if it finds one (>0) it jumps to the routine to dial, or whatever. LL> Also i need to know how to perform the upload itself when your in LL> the script. (press pgup, choose the transfer protocol, tag the LL> reply packet file and then begin the upload) The following will do that: result = Send('Z',"D:\comm\up\hbeat131.rep"); That tells Telix to start a ZModem upload, and to upload the file as indicated. You then have to include either a WAITFOR or a tracking loop to watch for whatever the BBS sends when the upload is complete. Those came (slightly modified) from the following script. This script is designed for a MAXIMUS BBS system. The script is called from the dialing directory when Telix connects or it can be called from a dialing script which is what you seem to want to do. The script does the complete logon, downloads any waiting packets, uploads any packets destined for that BBS, and logs off. The script is for Telix 3.51 but should work with previous versions and (with some modifications) with TFW. === begin HEART.SLT === ///////////////////////////// MAXIMUS /////////////////////// // The logon questions are handled in any order, // and optional prompts are ok. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// str user_name[] = "Rick Collins"; str up_file[] = "d:\comm\up\hbeat131.rep"; int stat, trk1, trk2, trk3, trk4, trk5, trk6, trk7, trk8, tmark, wtime; int trk9, trk10, trk11, trk12, trk13, trk14, trk15; int result = 0, ypos=0, comp=0, tstflg=0; // // Login strings // str escreq[] ="for Maximus"; str files[] = "les [Y,n]?"; str more[] = "More [Y,n,=]?"; str name[] = "name:"; str namever[] =" Collins [Y,n]?"; str pass[] = "Password:"; str cont[] = "TER to continue"; str mail[] = "for mail?

The script assumes the bbs password is defined in the dialing directory entry for that BBS. NOTE: The "DO_TEST" portion of the script is likely not needed - that was included to address a specific problem with a specific system. It contained code that is not in the public domain, and so I have deleted it from the script. Have fun - and post again if you need more help. Rick --- * Origin: The Warlock's Cave (1:163/215.39)
