Rs232 Comms

Hi ALL :wave: ,

I am new to Visual basic. I have visual basic 6.0 and visual basic net.

I need some help to communicate with some electronic equipment using RS232 COMMS.

Can any one supply me with some code examples that sets up the port and
allows text strings to be sent via RS232 and Text strings to be recieved back from this equipment ?

I have tried MSCOMM but it appears not to be very good.Has anyone experienced the same and what is the best away around it ?

Look forward to hearing from anyone.
