That's exactly what I did several years ago - very slick - it also combined with a barcode scanner for getting info for UPS manifests, as I recall.

Why not write a little VB or C# program to read the RS232 port and then

If you need programming assistance, feel free to contact me or one of my
salespeople directly.
Otherwise this could be a good learning experience if you have the time.
