uart terminal for windows

Can I read data coming from a uart port of a microcontroller using terminal in windows or should I use another software? I heard avr stuido can do that, but my microcontroller is not avr, it's microchip pic series. I'll appreciate if you kindly assist me in the matter.
regards,
 

Re: UART

Of course you can read the data using Hyperterminal. I doit all the time, because it saves me the trouble of writing Windows applications to talk to my micros.
Just make sure the baud rate is set corectly and use only printable ASCII characters, or else you will have a hard time decoding the data.
