    I'm using the 32feet dlls oon a win 7 PC to connect to my BT 2.0 device.

    I'm setting it up as a serial port ... using the following code :

    Dim dev As New BluetoothDeviceInfo(device.DeviceAddress)
    Dim state As Boolean = True
    dev.SetServiceState(Bluetooth.BluetoothService.SerialPort, state, True)

    and this works .. however when I then try to access it via the com port windows prompts me "A bluetooth device is trying to connect" is there any way to eliminate this windows prompt.


    If i add the device from the windows stack it seems to add correctly ( there is no pin required), then I can access it from the com port with no issues ( there no further windows prompt asking me to allow it to connect.)  ... but if i do this pro grammatically i get the prompt  - what am i missing  ?

    all suggestions would be most helpful, including alternative ways of doing this using VB.net.

    thanks

    Hello,

    You'd better put your question on here instead of MSDN forum: https://github.com/inthehand/32feet

    They know it better than here.

    Best regards,

    Barry
