Solution 3

If you could afford porting from VB to VB.NET you could stop wasting your time for miserable but very annoying problems and could concentrate on real work. Such a simple thing as port communication is already there plus millions of more important things.
Just a suggestion…

Hmmm... ok. Point taken.

Just to make your references relevant I advised to switch to .NET in my Answer :-)
