Maybe a better question would be if you are going to run this on Windows why are you using Qt? If the goal is to make this cross platform you might want to look at mono and glade, but each platform will still have different serial code.
Can you refer me a resource/article on .NET 2 that I could get started with?

No, I don't need a cross platform program but Qt is the only program that I have found to date that has a simple, straight-forward interface. Do you have any better suggestions for creating windows GUI?

Edit: I am currently downloading Visual C++ Express with .NET 2 Framework. Is this what you had in mind?
