reading binary data from a serial port

Does anyone have experience with reading binary data from a serial port? We were thinking to use MSComm32.ocx or NetComm.ocx, but some characters above ascii code 128 get automatically transformed by Navision into a question mark, even though the output type of the property 'Input(data)' (to read from the serial port) is a variant. Apparently the data in the variant is stored as characters and Navision is transforming this based on the regional settings/codepages.
Is there any way to avoid this or does anyone know or have a dll to read binary data from a serial port and that doesn't have this behavior when you use it in Navision?
