Thread: Code error (socket prgm)

Hi guys,
I've tried the socket programming for the first time a very simple one, however I encountered some problems...
here's the code...
====================

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <winsock.h>
#include <iostream.h>
void main()
{
	afxsocketinit();
	int nRet,sd=0;
	int port_to_connect_to = 5555; //port no.
	short nPort;

	Csocket.socket;

	socket.create();

	if(!socket.Connect(10.1.3.40,5555))
	{
	  int err = socket.GetLastError();
	  cout << err << endl;
	}

}

=========================================

Gives me the following errors!!
est_wskp2.cpp
C:\C++\IP2\Fe96_vp\Test_wskp2.cpp(11) : error C2065: 'afxsocketinit' : undeclared identifier

===========================================

Please can some one help me out with this!!
Basically its to do with making a connection to a server on a port.
If the return code is -1 the connection failed else success

Many Thanks!

why not just use the plane old SOCKET structure instead of your fancy Csocket's?
