Just to clarify, I'm using VB 2005 Express Edition. I tried adding a Winsock control to the toolbar to use in a project. I followed instructions I'd seen several places online to add toolbox items. The one screenshot I saw showed that it would say something in the list like "Microsoft Winsock Control 6.0" I didn't have that in my list, so I browsed to the System32 folder. I had both a winsock.dll and wsock32.dll. I tried adding them both individually, but for both, I got the message (with the file name corresponding to what I was adding) "The type library C:\WINDOWS\System32\wsock32.tlb could not be loaded". Does anyone know why I'm not seeing a winsock control as something to add on that list, and why I'm getting these errors. I'd really like to try to work with Winsock. It doesn't seem to me that it would be something that wouldn't already be installed on the computer. Any suggestions? Thank you.
