    Did you trying searching google for it?
    [gloworange]And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict\'s veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a board is found. \"This is it... this is where I belong...\" I know everyone here... even if I\'ve never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again... I know you all...[/gloworange]

    That sounds like it's highly operating system and/or compiler specific.

    I suspect that is from some DOS compiler.

    In protected-mode OSs you can't read the parallel port directly in this manner. You have to either use the proper method of accessing the parallel port driver (which may not do what you want), or gain direct I/O access.

    Use this link. It covers the topic of reading/writing to the parport. It also contains a custom library which contains specific exportable functions for Parallel I/O. http://www.logix4u.net/inpout32.htm
