Very strange i was sure that GetCommState() only reads the 
exist state of the parameters, why does command that start with
the word 'Get' should change anything?! 

But i guess that you right, becouse this is what i read in the
Microsoft web site -

"Use the GetCommState function to retrieve the default settings and use the SetCommState function to make port settings."

I understand from that, that GetCommState() set the default 
parameters.... but again i think that it's very confused that a
command that start with the word 'Get' is doing any changings.

I'll check it and tell you if it's working (i need to arange a
scope device to see the 'Parity' pulse)
