Reading a serial port using win32 API?

What APIs are available do this. I also want to set the baud rate first.
Many thanks

windows treats com port like a file

need to use
SetCommState to setup the port
SetCommTimeouts to set time outs
CreateFile to open port

check up on MSDN web site for more on win32 API
