Help with VB.NET Chat Application Interface

Expand Post »
Hello,
I'm currently developing a Chat Application in VB.NET which is similar to MSN Messenger. I need to know the control to use for the message area of the chat window in which the messages sent and recieved will be shown. I tried using the rich text box but it does not support hyperlinks and emoticons......so what control should i use? pls suggest

Re: Help with VB.NET Chat Application Interface

The easiest way would prolly be to use a WebBrowser object. Otherwise you're looking at a custom control.

Re: Help with VB.NET Chat Application Interface

You need to use the Winsock control (an example: http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb...2253&lngWId=10) or another socket control like secure socket library (example: http://www.bigspeed.net/articles/sec...curechat.html). Secure socket library may be a better choice since most examples of winsock that you find will be in VB6.
