    Hi, I've been looking through the MSDN Library and can not find any reference to writing to my parallel port. Please could somebody tell me if there is a simple command or control that can do this. Thanks ! regards Justin

      Open the port like you were using a file. Use the name "PAR1". If you want to do serial port access then use "COM1". The number represents the number of the port that you are trying to open.
