problem using serialport in vb2005

[Jan]

Hello,

I want to send some simple strings to com1 using vb2005. I want to read
it
in Hyperterminal.
I succeeded to send some data en read it in Hyperterminal, only the data
I
received is not the data I send.

This is the code i used:

Private Sub Button1_Click(B yVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArg s) Handles Button1.Click
SendSerialData( )
End Sub

Sub SendSerialData( )
Dim data As String = "x"

' Send strings to a serial port.
Using com1 As IO.Ports.Serial Port =
My.Computer.Por ts.OpenSerialPo rt("COM1", 2400, IO.Ports.Parity .None, 8,
1)

com1.WriteLine( data)
End Using
End Sub

Is there something I forgot?
The settings of the serial port I also used for hyperterminal.

Thank you very much for even reading my question

Maybe

Sub Com1Conn()

Using com1 As IO.Ports.Serial Port = _
My.Computer.Por ts.OpenSerialPo rt("COM1", 9600)
com1.DtrEnable = True
com1.Write("YOU R DATA" & vbCrLf)
' Insert code to transfer data to and from the com port.
End Using

End Sub
