The solution depends largely on what hardware is connected to the serial port, and what you want to do with it. Sending and receiving ASCII characters can be done with a teminal program for example. You can manipulate the port using Qbasic or some other BASIC dialect. Maybe you will get more sophisticated comments if you give a bit more detail about the project.
