You must have misunderstood me (could be partly my fault sorry), I meant if it is possible to listen for incomming connections (not to accept them) and simultaneously communicate (sending/receiving) with a non-connected client? For ex: * socket S is created. * bind S to network address with specific port. * Create thread T. * set S to listen for incoming connections * meanwhile on thread T, socket S is sending and receiving messages. Is the above situation possible? :confused: Aidman » over and out We haven't inherited Earth from our parents, instead we have borrowed her from our children; an old Indian saying.

do u mean a dialog based app? select that option in the app wizard and voila! :cool: "there is no spoon" biz stuff   about me

hehe... I found the problem, when I declared the PARAMFORMAT and the CHARMFORMAT structures I forgot setting them to zero, which caused the variable members (who wasn’t later set to any specific value) to have unpredictable values. Anyways it was a clumsy mistake :-O Aidman » over and out We haven't inherited Earth from our parents, instead we have borrowed her from our children; an old Indian saying.

Thanks man! That did the trick :-D Aidman » over and out We haven't inherited Earth from our parents, instead we have borrowed her from our children; an old Indian saying.

static function can not access non-static members. Look at the Code Project FAQs for anouther way to implement callback functions. INTP

This is the default windows behavior. Unless it is absolutly necissary I would not change it because it will confuse your users who will expect to be able to edit the box. John

As others have mentioned, you use the EM_SETREADONLY message. However, this will cause the edit box to be grayed out. You can still select the text, copy it, etc.. If you want the control to look like a normal edit control, but be read-only, then you need to catch WM_CONTROLCOLOR and look for the controls window handle and return a brush that's the same as the users color preferences. I'd advise against that, though. It confuses users when a control looks editable, but really isn't. -- Where are we going? And why am I in this handbasket?

If so then does it require any special configuration, if it does then how? And also, is it possible to use so called USB Hubs or Switchs to connect more then two computers together? I believe it is though I have never done it so am not much help sorry. Having siad that I have seen adapters that fit into a USB post that take RJ45 connectors found on the end of Cat-5 cable. Might be worth looking int them as they are then just used as a normal NIC with TCP/IP.

Great Program! I love it, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Neville :) Aidman » over and out

Thanks! It worked :) Aidman » over and out

The short answer: Yes, you can make a socket blocking or non-blocking. Better answer: Get this book, "Network Programming for Microsoft Windows", Second Edition, Anthony Jones & Jim Ohlund. I got it off of half.com for $15 or $20 bucks. Well worth it especially since it retails for $59.00 Or, read up more on Winsock and sockets. :)
