[RESOLVED] run time error help

[VBlee]

hey,

when i try to run my application i keep on getting:

Run-time error '10048':
Address in use

Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

it happens when i try to open my app and when i try to run it as a test inside VB it has this error and selects the line:

sckMsgBoxType.Listen

At a guess I'd say you've assigned an IP address to your socket that is being used elsewhere.

Does this help?

You can not Listen on a port if another program is using that port (or if you're already using that port in your VB program).

ie:

Winsock1.LocalPort = 80
Winsock1.Listen

Winsock2.LocalPort = 80
Winsock2.Listen

Thank you all for that, my problem was that i had 2 of the same ports.
