Hi Andy, could you be a bit more precise about the kiond of data handled ? About sending data, compressed and encrypted, unless you deal with big amount of sent data at once, i would suggest you to have a look at François PIETTE's Midware Component Suite (http://www.overbyte.be/frame_index.html). The demo are very well explained. if you deal with big amount, still at once, i would suggest you more to have a look at the ftp server component. You can imagine to encrypt and compress your data into a 'memory file' and the send it through a ftp client. On your ftp server, you can then receive a file and then uncompress and decrypt etc... unless you want to create your own protocol. But as you mentioned in your mail object you're newbie ;) HTH, Best regards, Guillaume MAISON ----- Guillaume MAISON - [EMAIL PROTECTED] 83, Cours Victor Hugo 47000 AGEN Tél : 05 53 87 91 48 - Fax : 05 53 68 73 50 e-mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Web : http://nauteus.com -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
