WinNT and Win2K are fully protected operating systems, meaning you cannot 
directly access devices without writing a device driver. You should be able 
to open the device just like a text file. You didn't say what you are 
trying to do, but if all you want to do is send data out via the LPT port, 
opening as a text file for output will work. If you want to do both input 
and output, you may need to use the Windows API to open the port in a 
different mode.
