Hello,

I am new to Visual Basic, but I must write an application that reads the Serial Ports for testing devices. I am trying to use Mscomm32.ocx but it is giving me a hard time. I am running a Learning Version of VB 6.0, and everytime I try to load the component (MS COMM 5.0) in the ToolsBar I get the message that the license information for the component is not valid or is missing. I use regsvr32.exe to register the .ocx but nothing. I have tried everything I have found on the web. Does somebody know if in order to use this control (MS COMM 5.0) I need the pro / enterprise versions (I have the learning)? When I start to look for the MS COMM 5.0 to load in the ToolsBar I see that (SP2) is also included with the name of the control. Does it mean that this control was provided only with Service Pack 2.0? (I do not find this SP in Microsoft). I love Microsoft !

Thanks for supporting this dummy
