Foxpro Winsock Program
Jun Yang
The origins of the VFPwinsock project: - The network communication in Microsoft Windows goes through a 'socket'. It's the library 'winsock' which is issued by the DLL: 'WS232.DLL'.
UDP socket programming in winsock. Its time to make a client program which shall connect to the server and do the same things that the ncat program did earlier.

The documentation on the Microsoft website is at the following. William GC Steinford and Anatoliy Mogylevets have posted a Visual FoxPro source code of a 'wrapper' methods of WS232.DLL on and - Since then, several people have implemented the use of winsock to send mail (SMTP) and receiving (POP) or manage news (NNTP) or others download via HTTP and FTP. I took the work of the 'wrapper', adapted, adjusted and completed for having a class mail, 100% VFP code, who is managing the various aspects and problems of formatting for sending email. I posted it, here, in open source.
Intelligent Control
Since then several people have completed and tested. Best regards Francis FAURE.
