Sendmessage across network

[Phi1Smith]

Hi

Could someone point me in the right direction to get two exe's on different PC's communicating across a network. I would like one exe to transmit a simple ID number to the other exe.

Cheers

Phil

You could try the Winsock control. There is an example of send and receive code for simple messaging in VBHelp

Winsock looks OK to me I'll give it a go.

Many Thanks
