Thank You Mr.Stephen
I just connected an external device connected to serial port
to read temprature. I wrote a small program (20 lines)in QBASIC
to read the input. I have a student version of ObjectADA for win95
therefor I jsut wanted to convert this QBASIC progarm to ADA under
win95.
anyway thankyou again for your advice.
