Text File transfer over RS232

Hi All, How can I send a text file (.txt) from PC to the SRAM on FPGA board through RS232? Any codes or books for reference?? Thanks! :)

Hi mmTsuchi,

I will explain my task clearer. I need to design a mechanism to download a text file to DE1 board via RS232 and the file will be saved in SRAM. I understand that the DE1 board will be the receiver. But where will be the data sent from? (like as transmitter)? I am thinking about using Hyper Terminal to send the file. Are there any other ways to send the file?

Thanks!:)
