Sending messages over LAN
-
I'm trying to create a restaurant point of sale system that has the ability to send messages (xml files) over a LAN. Basically I would like to send orders from a front desk/dining area to the kitchen. Can someone please point me in the general direction of what to look up in order to do so? I'm not familiar with LAN stuff at all... Thanks

I totally agree, because someone said, how do I create a text editor it made me actually think about making one myself, and by asking specific questions, I got specific answers. So, yeah do not just ask for something. Analyze the problem, think about what you want it to do, try and figure things out (Microsoft Visual C# 2005 is great for this, if you hover over functions) then if you still have no idea, post a specific question.

mmmm buddy, I think you should really be using a database, instead of "sending" orders to the kitchen :)

WCF (or if you have to use old stuff: a WebService). Remoting is a posible solution if you want to add complexity and remove flexibility. The database is obviously something that could be used on the server (kitchen side in your example I guess), though for a small test example storing XML will probably do. If you use a database, access it from business logic on the server side, do not access it directly from the client side.
