Hi,

this sound's like a similar problem I was facing some years ago.

We solved it in this way:

1. Define a SAP function module, which builds the interface for a remote (RFC) call

2. Create a remote-RFC-Server with Java

3. Perform the communication with the weight-controller via TCP in the Java-Code

4. Send it back via RFC-protocol to SAP.

You can easily transform you VB-coding if you are working with the .NET Framework. There is a SAP Library called .NET Connector ( NCO ), where you can build your own RFC-Server for handling SAP-outbound calls.

Kind regards,

Hendrik
