You need to check the FLOW control that is set in your communications program and confirm that Modem Share is set the same way. If the communications program is set for hardware flow control you will need to go into PAREDIT and edit the CLIENT.CON file and select hardware flow control. You must unload and re-load the MCLIENT program so the parameter file changes are used.
