    Send data, string through Serial Port

    Hi , i knew Serial ports are a type of computer interface that complies with the RS-232 standard. They are 9-pin connectors that relay information, incoming or outgoing, one byte at a time. Each byte is broken up into a series of eight bits, hence the term serial port.
    And I want to write a program chatting through Serial Port. Have you got any sample about that please send me. Thanks.

    If i help you please rate me.

    The .NET Framework includes a SerialPort class. There are various examples around of its use.

    http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/in...howtopic=37361

    That was on the first page of results from a Google search for .net serialport. I reckon there'd be examples on this site too, e.g. in the CodeBank.

    And, I have one or two examples in my book (OK, perhaps a few more), Visual Basic Programmer's Guide to Serial Communications 4. You also can go to my website and download a serial terminal example along the the other examples that posters have mentioned.
