The problem is when I do:

Winsock.Sendata "Blah"

and receive the data, and try to display it in a text box, it becomes blank. why?

How are you receiving the data? Are you connecting first? Do you get any errors?

VB Code:

Dim sIncoming as string
Winsock1.GetData sIncoming
MsgBox sIncoming

Do you have that in the DataArrival event?
