Putting it all together

This guide has introduces you to the basic concepts behind socket programming and how to use SocketWrench to get started developing your own Windows Sockets applications. Although the echo client and server sample program is fairly basic, it does examine many of the key issues that you’ll encounter when developing your own software.

Now is a good time to review the SocketWrench Technical Reference and the other sample programs included in the package. The help file included with SocketWrench also includes the complete technical reference, and can be accessed directly within your development environment.

    I need some help. I want to make the server client program work over the internet, not just a LAN. So my friend can use the client, and I can be the server and we can sedn messages back and forth. Can someone help me with this?

                    we have established connection between server & client. It works ok when we pass queries from just one form. when we want to load many forms at a time with only a single connection some error has occured. only the first form loads from the database without error when the next form loads there is some error in the connection.
                        could you help us?
