Hi,

You can download NETComm.ocx from my homepage.  Also, I have other .NET
examples and information, including a native VB.NET serial comms class in my
book.  See below for information.

You are not the only one looking for that control! Grrrrrrr, I had do go buy
a control that could do this for me.

You could probably do an interop to the old comm control, but I didn't get
it to work.

Though I would recommend an upgrade to final, you won't get the comm
control.

Hi,

I didn't get
it to work.

What trouble did you have?  I didn't run into any unsurmountable problems.
As I mentioned in my other message, I have working code examples in my book
(including one that use MSComm32.ocx).
