Seen any source code for serial port in VB 2005?

joe
Has anyone seen any source code that shows how to use the serial port in
VB 2005 (System.IO.Port)? Especially how to use the asynchronous read?

Hi,

I have a chapter in my book. The example is for Whidbey, so (naturally)
there is an error when you try to run the project. For now, you have to cut
and paste to VS2005 -- I will update the CD-ROM soon. But, not soon enough
perhaps.
