  Hello. I am writing a program which opens the serial device while another
task has it open, and the task does not know about my intentions of using the 
device while it also has the device. When I tried a test program out on a few
term programs, I found that the original task that had the device open can't
communicate with it unless it changes its COM parameters.

  My question is this: Is there any way to make the serial device work with
the original task without changing the COM parameters, after my program closes
the device?

     Any help would be greatly appreciated.
