posted November 13, 2003 9:53 AM Hi, I wanted to clear my earlier question as i think i have not explained properly my requirement. I have a DLL, written in C#. From this DLL i need to pass 4 strings at a time to a emulator(I have no idea at present what kind of emulator this is except that it is a type of a telnet screen). Once the data reaches the emulator, and necessary action is taken(eg press the submit button) the emulator will send this data to a legacy database. I have to use PowerTCP to first receive the 4 strings that i am sending in sequences, invoke the emulator and pass on the data and perform the necessary action(eg press the submit button), capture the errors and return it to the calling DLL(my dll written in C#) For this i should be able to invoke PowerTCP from my code(dll) and PowerTCP should be able to update the data to the emulator and return to the dll the status of the operation. Alternatively i can keep the data in a file in a directory which PowerTCP can keep on pooling and as soon as it sees a file it opens it up and reads it line by line sends the data to the emulator in sequence, generate a log of what happened to the status and then delete the file. So what all can i acheive with PowerTCP here. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks johyson |

Since i dont have the actual emulator right now, i was trying to connect to Microsoft telnet window. I got the error #10054. When i connect to the same machine on which tool is installed, i get the same error. Please help thanks, johyson |
