Do you know anything about winpopup?

I have posted this message over in API but no one seems to know the answer.. so I am trying my luck here...

I want to write a prog that receives net send messages (I am using windows 98) Before you all go jumping in and shouting winpopup just use winpopup!!! I dont want the kids(I am in a school) sending messages to each other all day so winpopup is banned!

I have been looking through all these threads for hours now because I know you hate repeating yourselfs... I got close with mailslots.. but still cant get it working.

I am sorry to have to ask because I know it hasbeen mentioned on and off all over the place but I still dont have anything concreate.

Does anyone have the code for this????


Thanks in advance.

Actually you success write the program to receive and send the message via the lan network?

You can use the winsock to do it.

i give you the logic here. if you want the code you can send a mail to me [email protected]. but i might will reply you at 10/2/2003 (cuase it is alot of thing to do, and i not sure i have a time to do it for you. just hope you can do some research to find out the winsock information).

when the winsock received the message.

if trim(ReceiveMessage) <> "" then
form1.text1.text = receievemessage
form1.show
end if

what i worry here is. your school already block the port to prevent your program to send message.

An example is attached it shows a very quick example of what you need


Set one as a host
Set the second as a client after typing the ip addess or computer name into the text box
