Hi
With many thanks to Michel Leunen
I was able to get my console ping working.
Now I am trying to set it up in a windows app.

I can't seem to even get off the ground though.

Where is WSAData defined.
In the console app I simply used 
WSADATA wsa;

However i get the error
2451 Undefined symbol WSADATA 

I included <windows.h>

I have looked at code submitted/corrected in the news group but I am
missing something.


__fastcall TForm1::TForm1(TComponent* Owner)
    : TForm(Owner)
{
   WSADATA wsa = {0};
   int ret = WSAStartup(MAKEWORD(1, 0), &wsa);
   WasInitialized = ( ret != 0 );
   if( !WasInitialized ) MessageBox(NULL, ("Startup Error " +
AnsiString(ret)).c_str(),
"Error", MB_OK | MB_ICONERROR);

Technical Details
