port problem

i have a winsock connection and every time i make a connection then exit the program, then if i try to reastablish the connection using the same port it wont work. any way i can free up that port or something?

Do you close your conn/port propperly?
Code?

i've tryed adding Client.close ,Server.close but the other winsock control is an array.

Not sure, but you should close all connections before exiting the app. If you have an array of winsocks then you should close them all too.

how would i close the array?

Loop through the array. Something like this:
Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
Dim n%
For n = 0 To Winsock1.Count - 1
If Winsock1(n).State <> sckClosed Then
Winsock1(n).Close
End If
Next n
End Sub


This will loop throuhg all the Winsocks in the array and close any one that has been left open.
