Hi, I hope it is fixed in VFP6. Perhaps Win98 has a newer version of the control? Perhaps it's a good excuse to install Win98, just to find out.

>>Hi, the MS Winsock Control does not work with VFP. I've wasted hours on it. Even the documentation for the control is incomplete with some methods being mixed up with properties of the SAME name. I suggest you try the Mabry WinSock control. It works just like a bought one.
