Helen,
Check out the KnowledgeBase article on accessing the parallel port from NT
(http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/3efedde4322fef19862567740067f3cc/c80752c53
094c296862565f3007ac765?OpenDocument). The llb and zip files at the bottom
of this article contain NT compatible In Port and Out Port vis. I'm using
them successfully on my NT.
Hope this helps.
Jim
