I have been looking for a while and have yet to find ways to connect to servers and send data ect. I was wondering of anyone could tell me how to conenct to a server then send a string to it. Imtrying to make a program where it asks for some text and you type in in then it asks for the server and it connects and sends the text in a packet to the server. I have everything except the connect and send part and it is on wondows not unix so it uses winsock.

One of the best tutorials on network programming I have seen is at http://www.madwizard.org/. It is very well written, easy to follow and gives you a good foundation in learning the Winsock API. Both a C++ and Macro Assembler version can be downloaded.
