 COM_CLOSE()
 Clears the receiving buffer and closes the com port

Syntax COM_CLOSE(<nComPort>) --> lClosed Argument <nComPort> Designates which port is closed, COM1 to COMN. Returns A return of .T. indicates that the port is open and can be closed successfully. Description This function closes one of the ports (1 to 4). This means that the buffer is cleared, and all signals in the modem control register (MCR) are deactivated. Characters remaining in the buffer are lost. The DTR and RTS signals become inactive, and any existing modem connection is broken. Note Warning! All characters in the buffer are cleared, and the status register is set to 0. Existing connections are always broken! Example nCharacter := COM_COUNT(1) // How many characters in // the buffer ? IF nCharacter > 0 * Read everything from buffer! cContent := COM_READ(1, nCharacter) ENDIF COM_CLOSE(1)
