I am developing a serial communications program and am having
trouble with changing the data rate to 38400.  When the program
calls BuildCommDCB with an argument of "COM2:38400,n,8,1", the
return value is -1.  The same code works quite well at other
rates.  Is anyone using comm ports at 38400?  If you are, what
method are you using to initialize the the DCB?  The SDK
Programmer's Reference, Vol. 3 indicates the values for the
BaudRate field.  Has anyone succeeded in storing the value
directly and operating at 38400bps.

Thanks in advance.
