Communicating across a LAN

What is the best way of sending a message from one application to another
application running on a different machine on a LAN? The computers are
networked using Windows networking, netBEUI protocol.

Neil,
   You can do this using mailslots, sockets or DCOM.

Re:Communicating across a LAN


Please don't multiple-/cross-post messages. It goes against newsgroup
guidelines (inprise.public.announce) and inconveniences everyone who
must d/l and read multiple copies of your post. Thanks for your
cooperation.--

Re:Communicating across a LAN


Does anyone have any sample code for doing this with a Socket?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Neil,

You can use the TMessenger component by C.John Thompson. The TMessenger is
very simple and straight forward. You may want to download
it from
