You don't have the MSWinsock .DLL on your computer and regsitered. It's on his machine because he developed the application with the reference to it. He needs to supply you with the .DLL file, most likely winsock.dll, he used and any other .DLL files in the bin directory he got the finshed .EXE from. You then need to copy that .DLL into your C:\WINNT\System32 or C:\WINDOWS\System32 folder (WinNT or better), register the .DLL using REGSVR32 and the remaining .DLL's into the folder with your .EXE. Then your app should work.
Better yet! Tell him to make an Installer Project and add it his solution so you can install the application and any needed files.

Another Windows machine... The problem you're going to run into is that you MUST get the version that was used to build the application. It's kind of odd that you don't have this .DLL. The other part of the problem is that you probably don't have the Interop .DLL that was generated when the application was built. Without that, you could get the correct WinSock.DLL, but still be unable to use it.
You might also have to have WSock32.DLL...

let me get this right
each program i build have a specific .dll file
this means that if i wish to move the program to test on other windows/computer, i must copy the .dll file together?
which folder should i get the .dll file from?
shouldn't VB.Net able to run all application?
below is the coding that provide me with the error
Friend WithEvents w1 As AxMSWinsockLib.AxWinsock(
Me.w1 = New AxMSWinsockLib.AxWinsock()
AxMSWinsockLib.DMSWinsockControlEvents_ConnectionRequestEvent
AxMSWinsockLib.DMSWinsockControlEvents_DataArrivalEvent
The referenced component 'AxMSWinsockLib' could not be found. Could not load the type library. Library not registered.
The referenced component 'MSWinsockLib' could not be found. Could not load the type library. Library not registered.
could this be the problem that i did not register after installation
or during installation some of this file is not installed?
or is it that i need to make some adjustment
sorry to trouble you so much Dave but i really need this help
thank you

WHen the application was built, in the bin directory where the final .EXE file is found, you will find .DLL file(s) that start with Interop.whatever.dll. These files MUST be distributed with the application .EXE file. If you don't have these files AND the .OCX file that they reference, you will get the error that your describing.

hello Dave
i manage to get the wsock32.dll file which is not available in my computer
anyway since you have mention that those two other .dll file is only available upon application development
so is there any other way to recreate those two .dll file on my own?
cause i manage to call up my friend cellphone and he told me that the program he give me is the only copy after he formated his computer
then i search a few other computer that are available at my college but i have no luck in finding the .dll file
so is it possible for me to recreate them?
cause those two line is the example i need to complete my assignment
so if i cant try the code i wont know how im going to apply it
thank you for all your help and sorry to trouble you so much

You would have to recreate the IDENTICAL references he made in his app. You could use TLBIMP on the .OCX and .DLL files that he used to recreate the missing Interop.*.DLL's. But you have to get that list from him.

today something odd have happen
i try my application on 1 of my college computer and the missing winsock file pop-up
i double check on my cd which the original program was and there is no winsock file in the bin
but after i compile at that particular computer, it show up
so Dave can i know why this happen and what file can i copy that can cause the 2 file to auto generate?
my lecturer say may be is my windows problem or when i install the program some file is missing
im getting blur on this
i think this might the last time i'll disturb you on this matter
thank you
Gary

It appeared in the bin folder because the compiler copied it there. The file is needed by your application because of the reference your created. If the 2 Interop.*.dll files are not there, it's because they are not needed...

The file with the little yellow "!" next to it is the one that is missing. Without that file, you can't compiler the project. That's why it will only compile on one machine. That one machine has the file it needs to compile this thing. Go back to that machine and search for the file that the other machines put that "!" next to. Copy that file to the other machine, in the same folder that you found it in, then you should be able to compile the project.

I'm building an application to read and write formatted files on disk. I have associated the file
extension (.fod) with the application and this works fine. When I double-click on a file in, say
Windows Explorer, the application starts as it should. But I now need a way of finding the name
of the clicked file within the application so I can open it. How do I do it?
I've been searching the help systems and just not been able to find it, probably because I'm using
the wrong terms. I've tried 'parameter', 'external parameter', "%1" and a whole host of others.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

The parameter specifier is "%1". Keep the quotes around the %1 though. This will prevent file paths with spaces in them from being broken into multiple parameters.
In your app, check into the Environment class and its CommandLine Property and GetCommandLineArgs method.

Hi
I know it's a small thing, but it really bugs me...
When i re-open a vb code file, all subs/functions are expanded.
I find that it is hell for the overview.
How can i make them stay closed until i open them ?

I am using DDE for inter-process communication in between 2 processes say VBProc and VCProc. VCProc is a UNICODE and maintains all strings in UNICODE format only (it might be in any language e.g. English, Chinese etc...) My VBProc module requests for these strings/data over DDE and display those as static text.
If VCProc has a ANSI string then the mechanism works fine, but the moment string is in UNICODE I face problem at VBProc end. With further debugging I found that VBProc requests data with CF_TEXT format whereas it should do it wit CF_UNICODETEXT format.
One solution for this problem could be to use MS Forms 2.0 object library. But it doesn't seem to reliable as far as DDE for UNICODE data exchange is concerned (from experience of one of my friend and from one post in the same context on Microsoft's site). So I am not in favor of using this solution. Could anyone comment on using it? Is it a freely distributable?
Has anybody tried/used/worked on similar scenario? Does anybody have an alternate solution to this problem?
Any suggestion in this context is appreciated
Thanx in advance
