MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

If the COM1: and COM2: ports cannot be selected under the Options Communications command, it is because Works is already connected to a serial port.

To disconnect from the serial port, pull down the Connect menu. A dot appears next to the Connect option, indicating that the Connect option is turned on. Press the letter “C” to disconnect from the serial port (or turn off Connect). The ports are then available under the Options Communications command.
