Stay with the latest AsyncPro version. I use this extensively and it works
fine for me. I would first look at your code on how you are processing the
received data. Another possibility is to look at using the TapdDataPacket
component. This hooks up to your comport and allows you to sepecify how to
capture the received data. If say your incoming data uses a STX and an ETX,
the DataPacket fires an event passing the complete received data set.
