    Finding and using valid com ports

    I just spent all day searching the web trying to find this answer with no luck. Tons of stuff, but not for VB6.

    I'm working with an application using one of those usb to rs232 cables and I need my program to know what port the adapter installed itself on. How does one scan for valid com ports? It may not be this device if they have an actual com port on the computer, so I just need to know and make available all installed com ports.



    I think this is the wrong forum.....re-posting in VB6 and earlier

    FCC Section 97.313(a) “At all times, an amateur station must use the minimum transmitter power necessary to carry out the desired communications.”

    I'd rather run a "Killer-Watt" than a KiloWatt - QRP Rules!!!
