pic18f2550
===================================================================================
//my code
void main()
{
char recdata;
usart_init(1200);
adcon1=0x0f;//to configuare porta as digital io port
cmcon=0x07;//to configuare porta as digital io port
trisa=0x00; //porta output
porta.f0=1;
while(1)
{

recdata=usart_read();
if(recdata=='A')
porta.f0=0;
else
porta.f1=1;
}
}

Hi, in mikroPascal there is a function "Uartx_Data_Ready" which can be called before (meaningfull) uart data (=1 byte) is read. I do not know if this function also exists for mikroC? I assume it should be used here also.
