Problem with winsock server and client communication....

[tokneneng]

Hello guys!!! I have this problem with winsock communication... I have form1 and user controls I call it xSocks, below is my code. on form1 i have wsk listener.

xClient is xSocks User control that I used and I create a new socket on form1 for Listener purpose.

[B]This code is on Form1[/B]
Private Sub Listener_ConnectionRequest(ByVal requestID As Long)
Dim i As Byte
    With Listener
        For i = 1 To xClient.UBound
            If xClient(i).Sock_State = sckClosed Then
                xClient(i).Accept requestID
                Exit For
            End If
        Next
    End With
 
    If xClient(xClient.UBound).Sock_State <> 0 Then
        DoEvents
        Load xClient(xClient.UBound + 1)
    End If
End Sub
 
[b]Code on xSocks User Controls[/b]
 
Private Sub Socket_DataArrival(ByVal bytesTotal As Long)
On Error Resume Next
Dim x As String
Dim iClient As Integer
Dim i As Byte
Dim iTmp As Byte
 
    'Data Arrival inform of x
    xSocks.GetData x
  
    Select Case Left(x, 2)
        Case "ID" 
            iClient = Split(x, "~")(1)
 
            'check if ID# is in Server allow range
            If iClient >  TotalComps Then
                SendData "ER" & "~" & "Error3" & "~" & TotalComps
            End If
            
[COLOR=DarkOrange]'Check if ID# is used
            For i = 1 To form1.xClient.UBound - 1
                If form1.xClient(i).xNum = iClient Then
                    Unload form1.xClient(i)
                    xNum = 0
                   Exit For
                End If
            Next
[/COLOR]
            
            'Check for maximum connection
            If iTmp > TotalComps Then
                SendData "ER" & "~" & "Error2"
                Exit Sub
            End If
            
            xNum = iClient
            
and so on...............

My problem is the orange part... my project is working well except if workstation is terminated abnormally e.i power Off, power shutdown, Uplug pc... so in this point the connection of the client and server is disconnected abnormal, On server side the bound index is still loaded, so when I try to reconnect the workstation get connected however it won't allow to used the previous bound index which the client workstation need in order to make a connection to the server. so what I would like to do is that if the workstation try to reconnect to the server the server will unload the bound index previouslly used by workstation, and re assign it again...

anyone pls. need help badly... tnx in advance...
