How to make a simple chat program in visual basic using the Microsoft Winsock Control

Step 3 Renaming and other property changes

we are now going to be changing the captions(what is says in the command buttons)

1. click command1
2. look on the right side in the properties and find Caption
3. change it to Host

do the same for the rest but make them:

command2 = Connect

command3 = Close

command4 = Send

now we are going to change what the text boxes say

1. click on the text box that says text1
2. go to the properties window and find the Text property
3. make it blank
4. do the same for the one that says Text2
5. now click text3 and change the text property to 127.0.0.1
6. now click text4 and change the text property to 1234
7. now click text5 and change the text property to Name

127.0.0.1 is your local ip so you can test the program on your computer when its done
1234 is the port you can make it whatever you want but just leave it 1234 for now
