I'm trying to use the winsock control on a VFP form. Works fine in VB but I can't seem to make it work in VFP.

The "server" I'm trying to connect to is an ethernet data collection terminal. It's IP address is 192.0.0.50 and the port address is 1070. I use TCP to connect to it (not UDP).

In VB if I put the winsock control on a form. I put the following code in a command button (click):

winsock1.remotehost = "192.0.0.50"
winsock1.remoteport = 1070
winsock1.connect command

... and I'm connected to the data collection terminal.

In VFP if I put the winsock control on a form. I put the following code in a command button (click):

thisform.olecontrol1.remotehost = "192.0.0.50"
thisform.olecontrol1.remoteport = 1070
thisform.olecontrol1.connect

... it doesn't connect?

Does anyone know what the difference is between this control in VB versus VFP??
