Re: Socket Question

[Patrick Townsend <townsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In terms of the VB application you can just add the sockets control to your 
project. You might need to be on the Enterprise version of VB to get the 
sockets control? But that will give you the ability to open a connection to 
the AS/400, send and receive data, and close the connection. Welcome to the 
world of sockets! Fasten your seatbelt....
