I have used Chris Karcher's RS232 driver code sucessfully (and it is designed
for Borland Compilers). 
Very easy to use, and seems to be reliable (it can handle high comm port speeds).
You should be able to find it on the WWW or I can post the code here.

I tried to learn Borland's OWL package, but I cannot find any documentation at
all (none came with the compiler) - where did you get info on the objects, etc?
