[Resolved] Problem with code please help (System.Net.Sockets) Related

[dsc_chris]

Ok, I have the following code working except my form locks up until someone connects, then after they connect it locks up until data is sent once data is received and a msg box pops up the form locks up again... Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? This does exactly what I need it to do but what I dont need it to do is lock up the form.

Private Sub cmdListen_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdListen.Click
        Dim ipadd As IPAddress = IPAddress.Parse("192.168.1.100")
        Dim port As String = "9909"
        Dim bytes(1024) As [Byte]
        Dim data As [String] = Nothing
 
        Dim Listen As New TcpListener(ipadd, port)
        Listen.Start()
 
        Dim client As TcpClient = Listen.AcceptTcpClient()
 
 
        data = Nothing
 
 
        Dim stream As NetworkStream = client.GetStream()
 
        Dim i As Int32
 
 
        i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
 
        data = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetString(bytes, 0, i)
        MsgBox([String].Format("Received: {0}", data))
 
        i = stream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
        cmdListen.Enabled = False
 
    End Sub

Basically the code is setup to listen on an IP/Port. When someone connects it will wait for that persons input then display a msg box when they type something. I am wanting to grab what they type and depending on what they type do a specific thing. I already know how to do this as long as the form doesnt lock up!

Thanks for any help.


P.S. Hope I am not confusing
