Need a lot of assistances in converting the below code to 64 Bit.
Hope that this is the only one that need converting.

' This VB module is a collection of routines to perform serial port I/O without
' using the Microsoft Comm Control component. This module uses the Windows API
' to perform the overlapped I/O operations necessary for serial communications.
'
' The routine can handle up to 4 serial ports which are identified with a
' Port ID.
'
' All routines (with the exception of CommRead and CommWrite) return an error
' code or 0 if no error occurs. The routine CommGetError can be used to get
' the complete error message.
