Do you mean ?

	ClientSocket1->Port = 7000;

That is about the worst place to do that.
You better never use OnCreate()/OnDestroy().

If you had wrapped your lines it would have been easier to reply selective.

When do you send your message then ? Better not in the same OnClick but in OnConnect.

Of course that is possible.
