.net 2 serial port communications

[fletch1963]

Hi All

I wrote a application that communicates via the . net 2 serial port
class. It works fine on Win XP pro
but now I need to run it on Win 2003 server. On Win2003 server the
ouput to the serial port is completely different and no longer
communicates properly. I suspect it has something to do with the
encoding. I have set the encoding to a character set 850 (ibm) which
works on the Win XP pro computer. Any ideas?

Thanks

One idea...

I would check the OS's COM Port settings on your Win 2003 box, if you
haven't already...

Hope this is a point in the right direction.
