I'm new to Siemens and am trying to establish a connection with a .net application. I found an example on Siemens website, but it is VB6 and I am having trouble converting it. Anyone have a good place for me to start or have some example code I could fidget with?

Thanks,

Mike
 
Does Siemens supply an ActiveX control for the communications?

If so, the example can be ported fairly easily to .NET because the .NET enviroment allows use of ActiveX controls fairly easily.
 
Hmm...weird...It's all of a sudden working...I don't think I made any changes either.

I'll look into libnodave as well, just in case.

Thanks for the help, even if it may have been user error :)
