title: C# serial rs232 parity error
body: <p>I'm trying to get a simple serial reader going in C# to read info from an rs232. I'm using VS2008. I can receive data fine with HyperTerminal and python but I keep getting parity errors every time I try to transmit a character to C#. Number's work fine, it's just the characters. It's configured exactly the same as HyperTerminal: 9600baud, 1 stopbits, no parity, no handshakes. What could be causing only the characters to mess up and not the numbers?   </p>
