I found lots of GPSapi code, including the one from the SDK. But how can i
retrieve raw NMEA strings from the gps intermediate driver? I know I need to
use createfile etc. But this is new for me, so could someone please provide
some sample code (C# or VB)?
 
I don't use the Intermediate Driver, when I want the raw data, though this
may be possible.

I just open the port using standard serial APIs (System.IO.Ports). If the
data need to be shared with another application, I have had better luck
using something like Franson's GPS Tools (www.franson.com).
