Symptoms
When receiving data over TCP/IP using Input # for a string variable, if a comma is in the data to be received, the characters after the comma are ignored.

Input #128, mydata$


Causes
This is a bug in EPSON RC+.

Remedy
Use Line Input # instead. 

Line Input #128, mydata$

Status
This problem will be fixed in a future release.
