Use the following order of calls: 1.Open socket 2. allocate NetHostInfoBufType Buf; 3. MemSet(&Buf, sizeof(Buf), 0); 4. NetSocketAddrINType Addr=AddrPrepare(Buf, 0); 5. Bind(Addr); 6. GetHost(strAddr, Buf); 7. Addr=AddrPrepare(Buf, nPort); 8. Connect(Addr); where AddrPrepare is converter from (NetHostInfoBufType, port) to NetSocketAddrINType -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
