   Hi,

I want my Client to send a request to Server to get
some file. Imaginary protocol:

   GET filename.txt

Then, I want the Server to receive the request and to
send back the Client the desired file contents. Imaginary
protocol:

   FIL this_is_the_pure_ascii_contents_of_the_filename.txt

The Server receives data through it's own thread
stThreadBlocking & ServerSocketGetThread().

How I'm supposed to SEND BACK the Client the desired
file? Where I have to place the sending code? Should I
have the alternative TClientSocket on Server to use for
sending? There are some examples of how to send a row
of text back ( SendText() ) but my file can be several KB
so I cannot send the file back from only one pass...



Best regards,
Vladimir Stefanovic
