you can use some communication tech niche like RS232 or MOD bus RS485 after initializing the UART of the controller

18F4550 is a usb mcu so in your project you would be expected to implement usb protocol stack in the mcu(Freely available). So program the usb mcu either as serial to usb convertor or usb keyboard. Search the net it is quite a popular MCU you will get more help. Use C# or VB.net Preferably

You have to USB Component like mcHID.dll from HELM PCB website. It works with VB.net 2005/2008/2010/2012. You need to program your mcu to send/receive usb data. You should also write the vb/vb.net application to send/receive usb data. I have done a similar project using PIC18F4550, mikroC Pro PIC Compilers, and Visual Basic.Net 2010. You can see the project here. https://www.edaboard.com/threads/271146/

I can help if you are using mikroC and VB.net
