c18 putrsusart

The problems now is that i cant really send the return 'ok' to my VB at comm 1 as an acknowledgement that the data sent from Vb has been recieved,so with this command
putrsUSART((rom char*)"ok"); or, putrsUSART((rom char *)"ok\r");
The output of my board become ok[00] and not only ok...so it cant be read by my Vb to restart counter...hope you can help...is there any other comand to allow my PICDEM 2 PLUS board to send out 'ok' to my Vb at comm 1...hear from you soon...

In MPLAB C-18, putsUSART() and putrsUSART() functions send strings including the null character.

Write your own function based on putc()

is there a send in vb

Hello...there thanks for your reply..then the putrsUSART(),all will return null character right then how am i going to write the putc() by my own?is it by adding it the command like putc("ok") only?i tried doing that but it cant work,because now i am writting the c code in the MPLAB ICD 2 to be program into my board so there is error compiling that was
Error - could not find definition of symbol 'putc' in file 'C:\mcc18\Myproj\Code.o'.
So..that means i cant use that putc() in my code because the files dont have the definition there right?hope to hear from you...how am i going to do it...

?is it by adding it the command like putc("ok") only?

putc() is only for character type arguments...you can't use "ok" as a parameter of putc().

Write a new function to send strings, lets say sendstring(), calling putc() function to send the string, character by character.
