This code (the first of its kind in the VB.NET section of PSC) will allow you to quickly and easily send a file over dialup, LAN or BroadBand. Works fine, and all the programs that i tested it on (from 20k to 200Meg worked fine after the transfer!)
If you have a brief knowlage of file manipulation, this should be pretty simple to understand.

hi, yah, hummm, When u want to use file transfer use System.net.sockets.TCPClient and TCPLisner. Then use the GetStream.Write and GetStream.Read.
Evern better, attack the Crypto Stream to it and use Triple DES. Let .net handle the winsock, it wount be there for long, indigo is comming. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)

The ActiveX license error is a known issue with Visual Studio.Net. Microsoft has described the bug and provides a work around. Its located at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;318597

For all those who waited for a loooong time beacause of that winsock file? Well just install VB 6.0 with Activex. And vs.net will automatically install the file to it self.! (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Sorry but using the winsock control through interop is useless. This app would have been good if it had used sockets insteack of an ocx that need registering. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
wne i run the code the and that is and error. 'AxMSWinsockLib.AxWinsock' is not define.'AxMSWinsockLib.DMSWinsockControlEvents_DataArrivalEvent' is not defined. so how i going to slove the problem
Type 'AxMSWinsockLib.AxWinsock' is not defined.

using mswinsck.ocx in .net is a rather primitive way of transfering data dont ya think? none the less nice little example on simple way of reading data from filesystem.. nice work (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)

You should fownload mswinsck.ocx and copy it to windows\system32\ directory. Then add it to your toolbox. (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
OE broer En visual basic .net se puede usar sockets como en vb6?? me refiero como un object y no creando clases, propiedades y todo eso.... Como t dije trate de bajarme el winsock version 6 y cargarlo no nada... como has hecho... (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
