    The only way to do that is by having a program in the server (made in VB) that interacts with the client programs trough something like WinSock (look for some tutorials on the web). But it's probably a bit too hard for you... you should try to master VB first
    Code:
    Temp = Me.GetIQ()
'Error 9: Overflow
'DON'T PANIC! :eek:

    Oh if you've used something like that before it should be easy enough. I think there's a tutorial on that at Fox's site: http://orion.spaceports.com/~mccloud/
    Code:
    Temp = Me.GetIQ()
'Error 9: Overflow
'DON'T PANIC! :eek:
