I cannot get WinSock running. I am running XP Pro, with VS2008. I have downloaded mswinsck.ocx and installed in the c:windowssystem32 and syswow64 directories and ran regsvr32 C:windowsSystem32MSWINSCK.OCX and regsvr32 C:windowsSysWOW64MSWINSCK.OCX. I have added it to my tools panel. Once I add the control to my form, the form will not run. I get the error below. It I cannot even run other winsock examples.

I have been looking at a lot of examples an have tried a lot of them but it seems that it only works on a lan and not the internet. If you want me to show you the code I've been using I can show you it.Also, does the winsock control in VB6 work over the internet?

When I click connect in the GUI the first state of sock.ctlstate is 6 , connecting then the connected event is triggered and after that the sock.ctlstate is 8 , "Peer is closing the connection". But I dont understand why it does this. I should keep the connection alive to communicate.

View 2 RepliesI have a user app written in VB which up till now has relied on winsock to connect to another device we have. The user app logs onto the device and then send / receives status reports from it which are used to set the controls on the apps forms.
This has all worked well for a long time but I'm now looking to move away from Winsock as I know it's not 'the right way' to do things and I also need to be able to send non ascii characters between the app and the device it's connected to (implementing multi language support).
The issue is with Winsock it would simply throw the DataArrival event when a message was received and I could then process the message and act upon it. When using a TcpClient socket connection I'm running into problems as all responses are on the socket thread which means I can't simply change controls on the main form without using the Invoke check.
What I want to be able to do is have the thread running the TcpClient simply alert the main form thread when it receives data and make that data available to the main thread so it can start processing it and triggering all the other functions etc required (these also interact with the Form). Whilst this is happening the TcpClient monitors any further messages and sends response messages as requested from the main thread.
