usb card reader with vb.net

[angela_quests]

hi
i search all over internet to find code for retreiving data from smart card which is inserted into smart card readre.
all i found was saying, it could be make if only the usb card reader is a serial card reader?

then, what options do i have?

1. buy a female usb with male serial converter?

2. change vb 6.0 to vb.net?

3. or the converter does not exist and vb.net doesnt support usb devive communication?

The only solution at the moment is .COM object. Try to find some third part products for the purpose. Otherwise i'd mention (if i may) that incoming vs express 2005 has inbuilt USB and serial port support (i've only read about that so don't take me too serious)

Cheers
