I am fully aware VB and VB.NET are two different languages :) Actually at the time I am talking about, .NET has not been invented yet (wikipedia says 2012), and it was invented by the guy cited in this thread as ex chief dev of Delphi: My post was just to say that Delphi had quite advanced TCP/IP components options compared to other languages of that time (I cited VB because it was supposed to be the "easiest" language of the period)

> Actually at the time I am talking about, .NET has not been invented yet (wikipedia says 2012) I assume you mean 2002? FYI .NET was available to some developers before 2002, that was just the first non-beta release :) > I am fully aware VB and VB.NET are two different languages...I cited VB because it was supposed to be the "easiest" language of the period I mistook your post to reference Visual Basic because I mentioned it in my post where I discussed VB.NET. I say this because opening your post with "actually" suggested you meant your reply as a correction to my comment. So it wasn't clear to me that your post was intended purely as an interesting yet tangential anecdote.
