I am very new to programming in VB. I am currently trying to rewrite a piece of code that deals with the winsock control. The current program is extremely complicated, so I am trying to break it down piece by piece. My goal would be to create a simple winsock program on my own pc, so then I could duplicate the problem with the program, and work with it from there.

Honestly, I am having a difficult time with this. I tried a couple of tutorials via the web and for the life of me, can't seem to get it to work. If anyone knows a good tutorial for winsock, or has some sample code that would have a simple winsock chat program attached to it, I would appreciate it.

Anything helps. Thanks!
 
The HELP description of winsock should do it. I suggest
you verify your cable and port work, with a non-VB software,
then retry.
Debugging strategy:
1) Divide into subsystems,
2) Verify that each subsystem works, or is broken,
3) Fix each subsystem.
