Acccesing the ISA port

[TSN_OTS]

I have a kind of a problem because I am working on a project, about Bluetooth communication.

My assignment is to make a program in Visual Basic, which is capable of "talking" between 2 pc's, and it has to be done via Bluetooth of course. I have a Bluetooth PCMCIA card in both my pc's, and they are mounted/places on the ISA port.
And this is my problem??!?!?!?

I have worked with the comm port & serial port, and know that you there use a com control, but I can't find a control for the ISA port (probably because it is so rare & difficult to work with).
Do you know how to establish communication with the ISA port???, is it a address I have to use or what.

I really hope that you can help me, because time is running out, and i really would like to accomplish my assignment.

ISA is a bus not a port. You need to know the port(s) the card occupies on the bus in order to talk to it. Although I would suspect the bluetooth cards have a Visual Basic API to talk to them it is very rare to talk directly to a port. Normally there is a Device Driver that sits between your application and your hardware. Also I am not sure that Visual Basic can talk directly to ports. C++ can (_outp and _inp) If you must talk to a port directly you may need to write a C DLL to act as a API for your Visual Basic app.
