Thanks for the links. I guess MS released a VB.Net Resource Kit that includes a component that adds serial communication functionality. http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/vbrkit/ JR -----Original Message----- From: Brett Barabash [mailto:BBarabash at tappeconstruction.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 4:03 PM To: 'dba-vb at databaseadvisors.com' Subject: RE: [dba-VB] VB.Net - Serial port communications My friend Google says: Serial Communication with VB.Net http://www.codeworks.it/net/VBNetRs232.htm Serial Communications : The .NET Way http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/DotNetComPorts.asp -----Original Message----- From: Joe Rojas [mailto:JRojas at tnco-inc.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 1:04 PM To: 'dba-vb at databaseadvisors.com' Subject: [dba-VB] VB.Net - Serial port communications Hi All, I am eager to learn and start programming with .Net, initially with VB.Net. I thought that it might help the learning process by converting one of my VB6 programs to VB.Net to understand all the differences. The program that I was going to convert was one that uses the MSComm control that comes with VB6. When reading the .Net Framework documentation, I realized that there is no equivalent class, at least not yet. I know that I can use Win32 APIs to add this functionality but the great thing about the MSComm control was that it masked the "ugliness" and complexity of the APIs. Has anyone found a good replacement for the MSComm control for .Net? Thanks, JR This electronic transmission is strictly confidential to TNCO, Inc. and intended solely for the addressee.
