I need to write an application that can access data comming in on a USB port. Does anyone know how to access a device on the USB port or can anyone point me in the right direction to find out how to do this?

CCRum,

What operating system are you using? And what programming language are you using? If you are writing in C, C++ or Java, you can open a stream to the USB port just by giving the port's name to the open statement.
