RS232 file transfer

Hi everyone,

I am trying to send a text file from my PC to DE2 board. I was able to establish a nice commuincation between my PC and DE2. However, all RS232 terminal programs are not relaiable, I get different tranfer rate everytime I use it.

Anyone knows of a reliable RS232 Terminal program? Please help,

Thanks

    Could someone please help. I downloaded Putty from the net, and it fine, but I want to send an entire file. How can I do that with PuTTY?

    Thanks

    Is it a text file? Can you just use copy/paste?

    Yes, it is a text file. Copy/paste doesn't work with PuTTY :(

    Can we anything else?

    Thanks
