    Winsock Control Missing in VB 2005 EE

    I'm running VB 2005 Express Edition and I'm attempting to create a chat room that multiple people can connect to. My problem is that I'm trying to follow a tutorial, but I don't have the Winsock control. I've looked high and low but I cant find it. Is it possible that my version of VB lacks this control?

    Winsock is a VB6 control. Welcome to the 21st century. The 2003 101 Samples contains an example of using Sockets to create a chat application. See my signature for a link. You will be able to open the project in 2005 but there is a chance you will need to make a few adjustments to get it to work.
