Who to what ?

Computers can be connected to the internet.
Programs can be connected to otherprograms -on the internet-.

A user wants to surf or mail.

See the OnConnect event.

There is still a thread about that:

Hans.

I thank you very much
It was to warn the user ,that there is an upgrade on the website.
I have look at the thread you said,and I have tried a "showmessage" in the 
"OnConnect" method, but nothing.
I thank you very much again, and I see it is not easy to do!
Thank you
Patrick

If TClientSocket connects then OnConnect definitely triggers.
Otherwise the OnError event triggers.

Hans.

Thank you again,
Do you know where I could find a basic example of the use of  TClienSocket, 
because I have seen I must indicate the "remoteHost" I have done it(I have 
looked in the help) but I obtain an error message ,it says it find the 
website but says I must give other informations.
I don't understand how to use it!!
I thank you again
Patrick

Look in the Examples directory for the Chat Client and Server. Be aware:
it is an awfull example. Better look in the socket newsgroup for many
discussions.

I have never seen such a message. If you need help please
post your code, the url and the exact errrormesage(s).

> I don't understand how to use it!!

There are many aspects.

Hans.

I go to see in the example directory, and in the "socket" forum. And I thank 
you for all your help.
At this time I go to use the TFTP component (I have understood how it 
work!!!) and I will done that my application go to look is the user is 
connected with this component. I think it is not a "beautifull" way to 
obtain what I need, but I must first understand how work the other.
Thank you again
Excuse my English
