Guys as i am knowing more about win32api i am getting more and more interested,but now i am getting little more interest in networking.I am already reading the book by charles petzold(i have already finished the scroll bar.For few days i was hanging with asm) so i just wanted to ask can i read the last portion of the book that networking and winsock portion just out of interest.Or do u guys suggest me to read the book in oderly manner.And after reading the winsock and networking portion can i use them in command line for making dos programme using socket .Suppose if i want to make a programme in dos mode like hangman or tic tac toe in dos mode which will be played over the net ,like i will give a response then the other player with whom i am connected over the net and then again me.So after learning the winsock given in this book (by charles petzold )can be used for making network programming in dos mode.Can anybody tell me about a good tutorial on winsock . :irritated:

I sometimes skip around in books, however I guess it really depends on the reader. Regarding the question of being able to sends messages via sockets, yes after learning about sockets and such you would easily be able to complete that task.
Tutorial wise, Intro
That is a very helpful tutorial, I am sure simple search queries with the phrase
"winsock32" or something similar would give some pleasant results also.
