This piece of code will pop open an MMF ED 2000 Cash Register. It sends the ascii value of A down com port 1. I put this code on planetsource code cause I had a hard time finding out how to do this. I tried the MSComm object and had a lot of difficulty with it. Hope this helps all the coders out there.
VBcodersSub popDrawer()
On Error GoTo err
If hasCashDrawer Then
Open "COM1" For Output Access Write As #1
Print #1, Chr$(65); "A";
Close #1
End If
Exit Sub
err:
MsgBox ("Problems opening drawer")
End Sub
