Client-Server VB Form Application

[Errods]

Hi All,

I am designing a Client Server VB Form application using Socket..........

But i want the application to continusly read the Network Stream........

Cant put the Code in the Form Load event as the form wont load until there is a Read or Write...........

Can I launch A Service which continusly monitors any messages from thr either side............

What can be the other possibilites to implement this

You would read the data in a background thread. You could use a BackgroundWorker or explicit multi-threading.

Can you give an Example for Explicit Multi Threding please

Dim t As New Threading.Thread(AddressOf method)
t.IsBackground = True
t.Start()

vb.net multithreading

You also have the asynchronous methods, those that start with "Begin..."/"End...", like BeginAccept, BeginConnect, BeginRead, BeginWrite.
