You can do it if you have 2 things
1. The SDK from the manufacurer
2. Documented API to write code for it

Otherwise that drawer stays closed

BULL-PUCKY !!!! I'm an EE, all you need is the active pin-out of the serial, (usually 5,,, one NC switch, ground, and the solenoid coil,,,, I JUST started looking into this, when I find the solution, I'll post it!

I think thy cash drawer must be connected to some h/w and then this h/w is connected to thy pc by serial port
if so then use ms comm ctrl and the settings as per h/w specification
set the relay on/off to send command to thy h/w

I have a user asking if I could put in a code that will open a register drawer. My understanding is the receipt printer will normally send the code the cash drawer. Is there a vba function that someone can share that will open a drawer without printing? Or does it depend on the drawer? I suppose if it's just a sequence of characters, then it could be made customizable to work for many different users. Any ideas? Thanks! Andy

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
