Almost everybody in this newsgroup is using VB6 or lower. While you may get
a stray answer to VB.NET (including VB2003 and VB2005 which has dropped .NET
from its name) questions here, you should ask them in newsgroups devoted
exclusively to .NET programming (the languages are different enough to
warrant separate newsgroup support). Look for newsgroups with either the
word "dotnet" or "vsnet" in their name.

For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups for Visual Basic .NET
related questions...

microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb.upgrade
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb.controls
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb.data

And these for more general .NET questions

microsoft.publi c.dotnet.genera l
microsoft.publi c.vsnet.general

Note: There are many other .NET newgroups (use the first three "fields" from
the last two as templates when searching for them), but the above ones
should get you started.

Hello to everybody, I've done an application that draws in a frame the trajectory of a robot. The robot position is readed through the serial port, and several commands are wrote through the same port to change the direction of the robot. The trajectory frame is managed by an applet, and the project works good when the applet is called by a html document allocated in the same local machine under W98 where the classes and the serial port...

Hi, I'm writing a program which requires the use of three serial ports and one parallel port. My application has a scanning devices on each port, which I can access fine with pyserial.

In order to fix this, I have to close the port and reopen the port again. Why?!! Is there any way to fix...

I have a slight problem. When attempting to receive data via my serial port I sometimes do not get the complete data. For example, I have a scanner that reads barcodes. When reading barcode after barcode, there might be 2 or 3 barcodes in a row where I do not get the complete barcode. It will be split up over 2 lines. Here is my code and an example of the data received is toward the bottom. Dim WithEvents com1 As New SerialPort
