Brad,
I found that the Microsoft examples were quite straightforward and worked well. How are you checking for the output? And what are the settings on your buffers? You can set these on the property sheet or right-click on the control and select the bottom Properties item.

Your code looks correct, so it may be an error on the receiving end. I usually checked this by telling the modem to dial. Then it was immediately obvious if I had an error.
