The Winsock OCX comes with Visual Studio, and I think always comes with VFP. It was probably optional during the installation of VFP.

If you use WinSock, embed it in a form, since the runtime licence doesn't allow you to CREATEOBJECT() it at runtime...

I've switched from using WinSock.ocx to using windows sockets directly (which is a standard component in Windows 98se+), with much help from examples by Anatoliy Mogylevets (
