In microsoft basic, it is possible to open a COM port with a lot of options 
(baudrate, parity, databits, stopbits and the options RS,CS,DS and CD).

Is it possible to open a COM port with the last four options (RS,CS,DS and CD) 
from a DOS C or assembler program - and how ???

Thanks in advance.

Lars
