Excel2000 and Autoit to Arduino

[sswcharlie 0]

Hi

Only just now come across Autoit.

I have an Excel2000 project, which requires Excel 2000 to send a small amount of data, via the bluetooth port, to an Arduino.  eg.   tell leds to turnon/off.

Can I use Autoit within Excel to open the bluetooth port and send data ?

Just need advice on the vba to communicate with bluetooth port.  In plain English - establishdat to send, open port, send, confirm.  And the same when receiving data from Arduino into Excel.

 

Thankyou

Does the Bluetooth connection enumerate as a serial port?  Are you trying to send serial data to the arduino via a COM port?  If so then this UDF may work for you.
