How to use the OCX mscomm under .NET? Need Certificate!

Hi,

Is it possible to get the certificate in order to use the OCX mscomm under
VB.NET. This OCX was available under VB6 and was used for serial comm.

Thanks for help !

Hi,

You can use the KB article that Herfried mentioned, or you can download
NETComm.ocx from my homepage.

That is one reason I quit using MS custom controls, you have to buy the license. In VB 6 they give you a try it license and then you develop a huge application or small one and find out you don't have rights to use the control. You have to contact the manufacturer of the control--MS may not be the manufacturer, in the original VB 6 docs it told you who to contact. Then you must pay them what they are asking, some are a one time fee and...

Hi I am developing an app in which I have used a MSComm object. I have opened the port, performed the transactions, and then closed the port. But when I check in the task mamager, the memory being held by the MSComm is not being released. I am using the SetPortOpen method. Is there any way of releasing this memory explicitly. Regards.

I am using an activex control mscomm to control a serial port in VB.NET. I place the control on the main form and set its port, baud rate, etc. properties. After creating a code module that needs to access the serial port, I cannot seem to be able to access the mscomm control from within a code module. In VB6 you could use the statement frmMain.Mscomm1.output = "some data string" in the code module but this won't work in VB.NET. Does...

I am using the mscomm activex control in vb.net. I can add the control to the toolbar which will allow me to drop it onto a form. As long as I am in the code space for that form it works fine. When I try to output some text to the serial port via AxMscomm1.output = "some text" within a code module, the compiler says that AxMscomm1 is not defined. Can anyone tell me how I pass a reference to the mscomm control located on one form from...

I get the following error message when I output to the mscomm: An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in COM.exe Additional information: Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A1F52. No one has been able to tell me why this isn't working. I know VB 2003 doesn't have serial control however I need to send this with the mscomm. It will break at the line : comm1.Output = Packet(i)
