Hello , iwant to make a frmSetting Form for mscomm control and in the Form i have kept TextBox to send data to port .And i also have the main Form on which is the main Form of the project . when i opening the port, in the Setting form it allow me to send data to port but when i am using the main Form to send data to the port it give's the error that the port is already open.So it does'nt allow me to send data from MainForm.
And in my frmsetting Form i have kept the 4 combo box to get the Baud Rate,Parity,Data bit,Stopbit,
But when i assigning this value to Setting Property of the mscomm control in this manner it doesnot allow to assign
Mscomm1.Settings="Combo1.Text,Combo2.Text,Combo3.Text,.." . It assigning in this manner "9600,N,8,1" to it settings.
