how can i get the ucp socket protocol to work in a winsock 5.0 control?

i know how to use the tcp protocol and get information from A to B and it works fine but you have to make a connection (plus you need to know the other computers' ip address).

i want the data i send to go to any computer on the network that has this program running.

i read somewhere that you don't have to make a connection if you want to send data using ucp. is this true?

i also read that if you leave localport and remoteport blank or 0 the computer(s) choose. is this also true?

i really want to make the program that i'm working on for two computers to communicate.


Both computers have vb5 Enterprise Edition installed, have the same winsock control (5.0) and have windows 98 running (one is first edition the other is second edition)


i want somebody to help me because i've read the section (in the vb help file) on winsock and all the events for winsock & properties about a million times and i can get ucp protocol to work!
