COM port information

Rob T

10/15/2008 10:31:00 PM

I have a simple routine that can retreive a list of com ports on my machine.
I would also like to get additional information about the ports..such as the
Device Description (which is found in the system's device manager). For
example: COM1 = Communications Port or COM 6 = USB Serial Port

Thanks.

For i As Integer = 0 To My.Computer.Ports.SerialPortNames.Count - 1
boxOutput.Text &= My.Computer.Ports.SerialPortNames(i) & vbCrLf
Next
