Guys, I'm looking for someone who has good knowledge of VB.net (2008 Express version). I've downloaded VB Express 2008 edition from MS but haven't really got a clue how to get an application to read and write via the RS232 port.

Designing a form was simples (the boxes are simple typed values on how I would like the end result to look)


I've managed to send the values from the list of variables to a terminal app in MCS via the EasyPIC5 serial port, but can't get my head round any example from the web on serial communications.

If anyone can point me to some easy to understand tutorials, or would be willing to work with me via e-mail on this part of my project please feel free to drop me a PM.
