Hello, All!

I am beginner in C#.
I just wanted to ask if you can recommend good online learning materials
with good examples.
I am interested in WinSocks.
Never used them before.
Want to learn.
Please help.

With best regards, Nurchi BECHED.

Do you mean sockets in general, or do you particularly want to use
(say) the Winsock ActiveX control? If you're using .NET, you might as
well just use the Socket class - or TcpClient/TcpListener.

I am trying to use the socket class. I've never done anything like that
before...
I am just trying to create a simplest application that would transfer data
over the network.
You know, install it on 2 computers and have them communicate...
Thanks.

In that case, I'd suggest using TcpClient and TcpListener - there are
some good examples of how to use them in MSDN.
