BuildCommDCB( cInfoDef, @cDevBlock )-> <lSuccess>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PARAMETER:
<cInfoDef> Is a string that specifies device-control information. The
string has the same format as the parameters used in the
MS-DOS mode command.
<cDevBlock> Is a string passed by reference that will receive the
translated string. Its structure defines the control settings
for the serial-communications device.
RETURNS:
<lSuccess> is TRUE if the function is successful
DESCRIPTION:
BuildCommDCB() translates a device-definition string into the appropriate
serial device control block (DCB) codes. You find sample code for this
function in SAMPLES\TestComm.prg
EXAMPLE:

| /* Set up the port */ |
