Hi everyone, does anyone here know if it is possible to assign a COM port address to a USB device?

I have a cash drawer that uses a serial connector to connect to the PC, but this PC has no Serial adaptors on the back, I have a Serial -> USB convertor, but to use this with the Software I need it to use a COM port number.

I am stumped on this one, any ideas?

From the brief research I've done on this; there should be vendor provided drivers. I don't think you can assign a com port to a usb port.
