'         VISUAL BASIC.NET 2005 INTERFACE USING PARALLAX'S USB RFID READER 
'***************************************************************************************
'IMPORTANCE: This example attempts to improve upon previously submitted RFID
'            reader Visual Basic.Net interfaces.
'
'REQUIREMENTS:
' (1) Microsoft Framework up thru Version 3.5 SP1
' (2) Visual Basic.Net 2005
' (3) Visual Basic.Net 2008 (NOT TESTED, BUT SHOULD WORK OK)
'***************************************************************************************
'WHAT'S NEW IN THIS EXAMPLE:
'
' (1) A tag will only be read once no matter how long the tag is held over the reader.
'
' (2) The correct USB port is automatically detected and opened so there is no need
'     for a trial-and-error selection to find the correct port. 
'
' (3) Tag values are displayed in both Hex and Integer values.
