Hi Terry,

just for my understanding of what you mean: you instantiated an object, which’ 
particular purpose was to open a tcp socket. The fact that this did go wrong, 
does not mean you cannot send the object a message of ‘let me know the error 
code of what happened when you tried to open the socket’. You are not sending 
anything over the socket (it is most prpbably not there) - you are 
communicating with your object.

Or seems something else wrong?

best regards,

René.
