I am posting here instead of *.VCL.Using because I figured you guys 
would have a better understanding of my question.

Has anybody gotten TServerClientWinSocket->Data to work with storing an 
AnsiString? I got a new AnsiString() assigned to it during the 
OnClientConnect event, and it seemed to work, but I am unsure where/how 
to delete it.

Any help you can provide, as always, is appreciated.

Use the OnClientDisconnect event, ie:

    void __fastcall TForm1::ServerSocket1ClientConnect(TObject* Sender, 
TCustomWinSocket* Socket)
    {
        Socket->Data = new AnsiString();
    }

    void __fastcall TForm1::ServerSocket1ClientDisconnect(TObject* Sender, 
TCustomWinSocket* Socket)
    {
        delete (AnsiString*) Socket->Data;
    }

Now for the stupid question:
How do I assign/read a string to the Socket->Data? Is it a double pointer?

(AnsiString**)Socket->Data = "DreamChaser";
AnsiString asName = (AnsiString**)Socket->Data;

I haven't done alot of pointer stuff, so I'm just asking. Thanks

No.  Simply dereference the pointer you already have, ie:

    *((AnsiString*)(Socket->Data)) = "DreamChaser";
    AnsiString asName = *((AnsiString*)(Socket->Data));
