Hi!

Am just starting to learn VB. I have written a small chat program. However when this program is run on a PC with VB not installed. IT gives a winsock.ocx error!!

Please advice what should I do to make this work.

Use the Package & Deployment Wizard to create an install package for your program.

That is packaged with most versions of VB, but if it isn't there, then you can download some other equivalents from the Web. Just run a Google search.

Thanks guys.

But the problem is that it is a small program for chatting : the initial basic program (kids stuff for you guys)

So here is what I did to solve the problem. I copied 'winSock.ocx' into the System32 folder of the PC that did not have Visual Basic and the *.exe worked.
