The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, version 2.0

SUMMARY
In chapter 10 of the FoxPro 2.0 &quot;Developer's Guide,&quot; the Low-Level Access to Communication Ports section includes the following line:

RUN MODE COM2:1200,N,8,1,P If this command is issued, when the computer accesses the COM2 port it will loop and wait for all characters requested in a communications command. To correct this situation, remove the &quot;,P&quot; (permanent retries) parameter from the MODE command. When fewer characters than requested are received, the MODE command generates an error that an application can trap and process.
