#80892 - RE: strange Uart transfer!
Responding to: ???'s previous message
"i'm using a simple program i wrote on VB6"

Don't take this the wrong way, but it is best not to rely on a PC comms program that you've written yourself, particularly a Windows one, until you have considerable experience in that field. Take Hyperterminal as an example - it's been on the go for a very long time and it still doesn't work properly.

"Donald, you're right TI wont help me, but, it would do no harm."

Oleg has already explained why this is potentially not the case. In fact, I'm very surprised that it doesn't appear to be causing the last byte of your first array and first byte of the second array to be corrupted.

Try adding a few more bytes into your first array to see if that starts to go wrong. You need to establish whether the problem occurs at roughly the same point after the start of transmission of a continuous sequence of bytes. If it does then it would tend to suggest that your baudrate is out by a few percent, probably due to something dodgy in the oscillator department.
