    C++ TCP/IP in windows apps

    If anyone has information or links on adding Winsock sockets(TCP/IP) to a windows program please send it to me. I'm developing a Accounting software package in C++ and need be able to link to other computers using a server/client setup.
    Try to help all less knowledgeable than yourself, within
    the limits provided by time, complexity and tolerance.

    Beware, the mod's are restless.

    See what happened to 'OLD FART' when he asked about 'Clearing the screen' on the C board.

    Only one post by a mod there, and that was a) moderate and b) helpful. If anything, some of the members are getting restless...

    be sure to put your winsock stuff in a thread, or failing that look up wsaasyncselect() function (something like that) or else your program completely halts itself and you can't do anything until your winsock code is done executing.

    Oh, and if you do a thread, be sure to flag the whole thing with a critical section so it doesn't get interrupted.
