I am more of a Low Level Programmer (assembly language), and deal with mostly electronics. Often I have need of a GUI that recieves information from the computers com port or sends information. This is the type of program I would like to able to develop, and I understand that Visual Basic would be an ideal language to do this in. My question is with the above metioned type of programmed does anyone know of any good books etc. As well what category would this type of programming with Visual Basic fall under i.e. "Building Databases with Visual Basic".
Please feel free to email me any replies or just post them.

Thanks in advance
