)
i can answer part of ur question ...
that is i can give u the code of a peer to peer chat program .. which means 2 people only .. ( u and another party )
the reason why u cant make a multiuser chat program is that u need a server that is always available on the same IP address ... actualy u can but it is more complicated than a peer to peer chat program ...if u want i can send u the code in an attachment of the peer to peer program ... just e mail me or post a answer here...

note : i have tryied it on a LAN (local area network )
i dont knowe if it will work on internet .. it should ... but i am not sure ..

Well if you go to http://www.acky.net, click on Visual Basic under the Archives menu, and then on Winsock Programming, you will find a download for Bodebot.zip - this is an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) example done in vb6.. its very good and has a lot of features.

Internet Relay Chat require a server (see previous reply) but you can get 'em free @ http://wircds.hypermart.net

Hope this is some help
