VBTerm is a terminal emulation program using the MSComm control. The sample demonstrates how to use the MSComm control with a serial port.
The MSComm control allows you to open a serial port, change its settings, send and receive data through the port, and monitor and set many of the different data lines. Its dual-method access allows for both polling and event-driven communications.
