Connection to serial port (COM)

[JAtkinson]

Is there any way in VB.NET to connect to a serial (COM) port?

Thanks,
James

Hi.

No, I'm afraid that there is no built-in way of doing this.

There is an example on MSDN that uses API.

I would suggest downloading the VB NET resource KIT.
With that, you get a free control by SAX, which is very good.

Here is an example project from MSDN.
