I was using read all in the data available event. However all the data was not there yet so read all just returned when it has emptied its buffers... (I guess) This was a bad thing in my code because I thought I had 'ALL' the data but of course I didn't. So I was wondering.. If I know how many bytes I am expecting to arrive should I have called read with the number of bytes I was expecting or will Read also return when it doesn't have any more data to read? Do I have to do a loop calling read until I have all the data? Can I do that in the DataAvailable event? I noticed that when I called ReadALL that later on i got another data available event if I hadn't received all the data in the last readall. _________________ A picture paints a thousand words.
