Help me project conection data acces game port 5222

OK, I still don't see what you're trying to do. What is winsock1 ? Why is it trying to find talk.google.com ? Is that just a check if the computer is online ? Of course, your connect button code is not going to run until you click it, and your winsock = 1 code will run before that.

This whole thing is a dogs breakfast. 'canot open target web' is definitely not the exact error message. And, I repeat, importing ShellExecuteA is redundant when you can use Process.Start without importing anything.

I just compiled and ran this:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Process.Start("www.codeproject.com")
End Sub

It worked fine. I did just create a Label on a winforms app and it does NOT have a Caption property. A WPF label does not have a Caption property either. Start again, tell us what this winsock thing is, tell us why you need to use ShellExecuteA, etc. Are you even using VB.NET, as you claim ? Because me.Hwnd is NOT valid in VB.NET, me.Handle is. your pinvoke signature as posted was also incomplete, and once I fixed it, I found it plain did nothing ( but, no errors ). Get rid of the pinvoke, or explain to use why you feel you need to use it. Post the actual full error message and clarify the line that causes it. Tell us what the winsock1 object is an instance of, and what you need it for.
