    I am interested in working with the serial port so I was glad to see a sample program for working with it.  I tried to run "UsingTheSerailPort" in debug mode under VB 2005 Express but I got the following errors as soon as the program started:

    A first chance exception of type 'System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException' occurred in System .dll

    A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.IOException' occurred in System.dll

    Any ideas on what to do or where to look for solutions to this?
