Based on your comments in the other thread, sounds like the LabVIEW side is working fine and it's a problem with your microcontroller. Have you done any testing to demonstrate that the serial port is working properly on the microcontroller side? Try changing the microcontroller code so that it writes a character to the serial port every second, then see if you can read that character in LabVIEW. Could be as simple as having swapped the transmit and receive pins - try using a null-modem cable instead of straight-through, or vice versa.

Yes, many people have successfully used LabVIEW to communicate over a serial port. It doesn't matter what's on the other end; serial communications are standard.

Make sure baud rate and com port selection is right along with uc firmware which responds properly...
Before you jump to labview make sure it is working on hyper terminal.
