If you can compile C++, you could check if you can use something out of the ptypes library. Since you only need communication and not all the overhead...

This is actually a good question to ask on experts-exchange.com. --Merijn On 8/15/05, Carl Hendry <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Please help: > I need to establish a program to program connection between two computers; > one running windows XP, the other running Windows 3.11.
