RE: Socket program problem

["John Allen" <jallen@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ohhhhhhh!
It's been a long day

OK, I used telent and it appears to do something, I get a blank telnet
screen
How do I send the data?
If I try to key anything on the screen, the cursor moves but the characters
do not display.

Use telnet, not ftp.
