Hi -

I'm looking at the Winsock component for use in replacing a similar product that will no longer run on upgraded servers.

I'm using a VB6 dll and I'm having some problems getting everything to work correctly.  I am not using a form.  I'm able to connect and send a request.  The status has a value of 'Send Complete' after the send.  I can look at the application receving the request and the request is received correctly.  (It is logging the request.  It is logging that it send it's response also.)  When I issue the getdata method, I'm getting an empty string back.  I'm also getting a value of connection closed (0) from the state property and closed from the status.

I haven't been able to find any examples for VB with no forms and I'm having trouble finding any help.  Does someone have an example I can use?  Or a hint to point me in a new direction.
