Just an update on the TCP Socket programming post for those that are interested ...<br><br>I installed the ICS package as suggested by Paul.<br><br>The installation was a breeze and with the demo TCP Client example I was able to talk to the server immediately without writing any of my own code - magic! <br><br>One of the good points is that you can have either blocking or non-blocking sockets as required but the major plus is that it is fully event driven, i.e. there's a "data received" event etc.<br><br>Eric<br><br><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2008 09:54:57 +1300<br>From: kyleyharris@gmail.com<br>To: delphi@delphi.org.nz<br>Subject: Re: [DUG] Indy Sockets - How to Receive Asynchronously<br><br>I'm now using Synapse..
