Winsock question

[tpabrad]

I am new to VB and have been reading through these forums to try and learn some things. I am using VS2008 and trying to use Winsock. Everything I have seen appears to use VB6 and says to add a Winsock control. Is this built in to 2008 because I cant find this control anywhere....

Thanks for your help.

I think you might want to look at the TCPListener, TCPClient, and Socket classes instead.

Some people do try to repurpose VB6's Winsock control in VB.Net but that's a bit of a hack.
