VB.NET Q

[Frane Roje]

I am using VB.NET 2002, and I'm having problems finding a replacement for
winsock control form VB6.0. Is there a similar control in VB.NEt and how
it's called. I actualy need to write a small chat which I have done
previously in vb6.0 in vb.NET
TIA

Here's some sample VB code for it:

Imports Indy.Sockets.Id TCPClient
Module Module1

Sub Main()
With New TIdTCPClient
.Host = "msnews.microso ft.com"
.Port = 119
.Connect()
Console.WriteLi ne("Connected." )
Console.WriteLi ne(.IOHandler.R eadLn)
.IOHandler.Writ eLn("Quit")
Console.WriteLi ne(.IOHandler.R eadLn)
.Disconnect()
Console.WriteLi ne("Disconnecte d.")
End With
Console.WriteLi ne("Press Enter")
Console.ReadLin e()
End Sub

End Module

You can also use the default .NET classes:

Yes, but its more work and requires more knowledge of sockets. Its a lower
level API or "abstractio n" layer.
