MSComm32 and Comm32 have identical behavior

Syntax	object.Break = value

object	Name of the communications control.
value	A Boolean expression specifying whether the break signal is set

Example
	object.Break = True	'// Put the com port into a break state.

Remarks:

You should only set this property if you know that the device to which your are connected requires such a break signal.

32bit development in VB6 using the Comm32 Communications OCX ?

Or are you looking for a proper .Net Component ?

Carry on using most of the common and well documented MSComm32 syntax but with a proper .net component allowing you to build x86, x64 and AnyCPU projects using Visual Studio 2005, 2008 and 2010.
