Serial Comms in C# for Beginners

Serial Communication between PCs is always seen as the starting point. My first piece of serial comms code was a University assignment getting two PC’s, then three, then… you get the idea talking on (what I now know to be) an RS422 with its pair of cables using Borland's Turbo C++ for DOS. Time passed I graduated (somehow!) and I got to be a Design Engineer in the ‘real’ world. Not looking busy enough got me lumbered with the famous “Glenn you aren’t that busy, have a look at this”. The ‘this’ was taking on a project that had been half done and then the guilty party ran. So to make it work the way it was wanted, out came the software (VB6) and there goes any social life I had.

Please Note: If you try to run the executable on a machine with no comms port in the Device Manager it will crash, I will when I have chance correct this!, to get around this please ensure a Communication Port available in Device Manager.
