Sending Serial Data

[kenbo]

I am using VS2008 in VB. I am sending some data (about 20 characters) using the serial port. Unfortunately, there is always a delay of about one second. How can I force the send to initiate immediately.

It *should* be sending immediately.

What does your code look like?

How do you know it is taking "about one second"?
