ok..first you need to be familiar with visual basic..learn how to do input (such as mouse click) and output (change text).. if your already done that it ok..i will just skip, and tell u how to implement MSCOMM..

if you download the free Visual basic 2010 Express or Visual C++ 2010 Express both have in the toolbox under Components a SerialPort component which can be used to talk to COM ports
