Hi Ashley,
No need that there's really something physically connected to that COM-port in
order to get that error. There's a number of 'sleeping' programs that occupy the
COM-port 'just in case'. Example: For my Palm organizer, there's a software
called 'Hotsync', that loads on boot and stays resident all the time, so I can
do data exchange as soon as I connect my Palm to the serial port, without having
to do anything on the PC. I have to explicitly disable it if I want to use that
COM-port with VEE.
I would suggest to browse the autorun folder as well as the ini files for
programs and tools that use a COM port. If you call the task manager
(Ctrl-Alt-Del...), you have a list of suspects and can work through them one by
one TIL IT WORKS.

I have a test rig which uses a .vxe run-time program using Com Port 1
When my customer installs Run Time version and swaps default vee.io file for
the file generated from my .vee program he gets the error detailed below. I
tried the .vxe program on a laptop which has the VEE runtime on it and it
works fine.
His PC reports that com1 is present if he looks at the system settings and
nothing else is connected to com1 (eg mouse)
Reported error is :
I/O error or timeout occurred SICL error.Interface
already in use by non-SICL process.
Thanks,
Ashley Derrick
