I am new to TCP but have been programming in B3D for quite awhile. I have a question. I know how to create a TCP Server and then have a client send information to the server, but how do I send information from the server back to the client? Thank you so much.

Use an echo Server..., but that would only repeat the info that the client sent in the first instance.

Robert, I would suggest you to take a look in the code archive, section Networking. There you find useful examples that may answer your questions. If you fancy, take a look at my TCP Internet chat program, it contains both server and client code, and it's full documented. You find it here: http://www.blitzbasic.com/codearcs/codearcs.php?code=28 Have fun, Sergio.

Now I understand how TCP works. I did not comprehend how the server could recognize the stream the client created, but now, thanks to you, I do. Thank you for your time.
