Question about Winsock Send packe with Byte and String

[lmf]

for some reason VB don't send some char in different language, so i have to set winsock arrival to winsock.getdata buffer, vbbyte

Here is the packet i need to send out

public function  Send(byval User as string, byval chatText as string)
dim Packet as string
dim truePacket() as byte
packet = chrb(&h80) & chrb(&hc0) & User & chrb(&h80) & chrb(&hc0) & chatText
truepacket = packet
winsock.senddata truepacket
end function

I have to use chrb for some char

can anyone help me out there?

Thankx

It has to be some sort of limit that is not allowing it to all be sent.
