Hi,

thanks i think you hit everything on the head there, ill look into those

regarding (IPC) im not after communication over the internet just yet, although i will also go over that, it looks interesting. im just interested in how i can get 2 programs talking to each other

am i right in saying if i used ip 127.0.0.1 with the tcplistener/Client classes etc, i would in effect achieve 2 programs communicating on the same pc, and it would be good practice for if i did want internet communication can i hit 2 birds with 1 stone there.

i will look into (MEF) right now so i can get started

thanks
