Hi Lewis, I am attempting to use your TCP Client and although I have managed to use it for your examples I fear that in the real world example where I need to use it I am struggling. It is at the very edge of my abilities and experience.
I have to talk to an SMS message gateway and I have the TCP/IP spec some asp examples but I am still struggling I have attached the zip file with the specs from these guys. I know this is very presumptuous and if you are too busy I do understand. I am happy to pay for your time if you could just give me a couple of working examples. I had the syem all working beautifully from another supplier (using an http post) only to find that all of a sudden they have problems with their UK Gateway which is essential as it is where I and my clients are based. They did not know that until I advised them and they are talking about a month to fix it. In the meantime I have a bunch of clients who I had demonstrated this working all now anxious to go and I am stuffed. This new supplier seems a better bet but only have a TCP/IP connection or email connection but the email will not allow me to set the sender ID. I have always been grateful for your contributions on the list and hope that you do not mind mailing you direct. I am happy to pay for your time if you have any spare. I am in a bit of a bind over this. Kind regards Gordon PS if you can not help but know someone who could assist me with this please let me know.
