Q. I've put together a comm utility running under Windows 95, in VB 4.0 (16 Bit), and I find the following strange behavior:

When a file transfer is initiated, the OnTransferEvent immediately triggers with code 0 _File_transfer_complete_, but with the message "Waiting for next file...".

How is MHCOMM getting the idea that a file transfer is already complete, when it is actually just starting?

A. The control makes sure that this property is set to 0 initially. You can prevent causing yourself problems by using a static flag in the On_Comm Event.

Unfortunately, this has always been the way that this control behaves.
