Before I help you any further I need to know what you wan't to
communicate with the server ?? I played around a little with the sdk and
created a basic application that communicates with the server and
retrieves info about players, rules, info about the mod running and so
on (the basic things you get when you use GameSpy). This however doesn't
require you to send any Won-id .. So what do you want to do ????? A
little info.. I use the Dundas Socket control (very like the MS one but
with more features) and VB6 ..
