how can i establish a conection whit a computes using
the com port of a computer??

is it difficult to write information in a eeprom memory from it..???

TKS
 
You cannot connect the EEPROM directly to the com port. You will need a microcontroller for example to receive the data from the com port and then write it to eeprom.

You could use handshaking lines of the comport to directly program an eeprom but you will have to write PC software for it .
 
Ok

does any one know suchs a project or good links,

i want to send simple text (using vb6.o comm object..)

to a microcontroller and that one writes it in his memroy

and then keeps displaying that tekst on a lcd display..

should be easy not..???

Very easy, one of my RS232 tutorials does just that - except it doesn't store the text in memory, there's no need - the LCD module keeps displaying what it was given until power is turned off (or you overwrite it).

If you want to store the text in non-volatile memory it would easy to add, most PIC's have a small amount of EEPROM data memory you can use.
