using the mswinsock activeX component

[poeijer]

When i do:

oWinsock = CREATEOBJECT("MSWinsock.Winsock.1&quot
oWinsock.Protocol = 0
oWinsock.RemoteHost = "smtpserver"
oWinsock.RemotePort = 25
oWinsock.Connect

it connects withouth a problem.
and the owinsock.state is 7

but when i use the ActiveX component
and do this

with thisform
.owinsock.protocol = 0
.owinsock.remotehost = "smtpserver"
.owinsock.remoteport = 25
.owinsock.connect
endwith

it doesnt connect i still get thisform.owinsock.state is 0

anyone any ideas?

Try it this way:

with thisform.owinsock
   .protocol = 0
   .remotehost = "smtpserver"
   .remoteport = 25
   .OBJECT.connect()
endwith
