Looking 4 beginner TCP programer eg. Winsock, just to pass time!
:wave: Anyone wanting to start building a chat program in Visual basic 6, add me in msn [email protected] doesn’t have to be a chat program but I would want to use TCP, if you don't know how to use Winsock I’ll be willing to teach!,:bigyello: , I’m not the best programmer!, but I’m defiantly not the worst, lol

If you code a client, I can code a server in Java, going that way with a project anyways...

I would gladly like to help! i ve always wanted to learn tcp protocol so i can do multiplayer games.

Why use vb6???
using vb.net will take lots of work away, made chat server/client in both languages, the vb server crached after 3 days (index out of bounds)
Now with vb.net its very easy to make async sockets. If u want i made sample of chat server/client few weeks ago for someone who needed to make same thing for school (writing the socket code only took 1 evening)
Doint this in vb6 is just a waste of time :(

Girvo, most game are using UDP instead of TCP (alltho i also prefer TCP for games above UDP)

No to protect VB6... But isn't that more likely to have been caused by a programming error? Fact is, both VB6 and VB.Net are restricted to one OS... AND they're not object oriented... yuk...

VB.Net Is Fully object oriented! And some CLR applications will run on linux (w/ mono).

Hmm... Well... Can't say I've ever tried it, but I've always heard otherwise... It still is a messy language though, I'd prefer Java any day...
[Edit]
Oh, and I've heard about Mono... But this is still only for LinUX and the features are limited(not to flame to Mono project, I reckon it's very hard with the different API and all). What if the customer operating the server wanted to use Solaris?
