winsock with .NET

[Fett Programmer]

I have a friend that sent me a little chat program using winsock.
So, I started working on a little program as well.
His program is in VB 6, and I have VB.NET.

I got the control to work with my .NET environment, but I have noticed that a few things are different in .NET, and have been giving me tons of problems.

for example

Private Sub winsock_ConnectionRequest(ByVal requestID As Long)

This is the VB6 ConnectionRequest sub.

When I choose my winsock control, and find ConnectionRequest it creates this..

Private Sub winsock_ConnectionRequest(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AxMSWinsockLib.DMSWinsockControlEvents_ConnectionRequestEvent) Handles winsock.ConnectionRequest

I've seen winsock.Accept requestID all over the place, but this is an error, obviously because requestID isn't defined in the sub definition. So I tried to use sender. Also, when I do this, Visual Studio.NET changes the command to winsock.Accept(sender). I dont know if this is wrong or not, but it does not work.

As of right now I'm sitting at a rather nasty error: "Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation." This comes up from this code...

Try
    winsock.Accept(sender)
Catch ex As Exception
    MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try

What am I doing wrong? or where can I find a .NET example of how to use winsock?
