如何通过串行端口将字符串输入从Visual Basic发送到Arduino？

Question

I'm trying to get a string input received in Visual Basic to print out on an LCD monitor on my Arduino. I know I will need to the console.write function for VB, and the lcd.writeline for Arduino, but how do I send the string from Visual Baisc to the Arduino over a serial port?
