Can anyone give me the syntax for getting a random number?
I'm too lazy to check myself, something with RND, isn't it?
That's what happens when you use VB for too long...

srand(time(NULL)) to seed the generator, then rand() to generate a number.

Thanks!
I almost used the Basic syntax:
<br />
RANDOMIZE TIMER<br />
X=INT(RND*24)+1<br />

In my BASIC it would be
X = RND(-TI): REM seed
X = INT(RND(0)*24) + 1

The usage of the reserved variable TI should give it away. C=64 then later C=128.

I have socket listening on a port.
Using telnet, I connect to the socket, it then accepts the connection to a
'client' socket.
In the client socket's class (derived from CSocket), I have the OnReceive
function overriden to post a message back to the main dialog window whenever
I can read from it.
Now, when I type something in my telnet window and hit enter, shouldn't that
'send' it to the socket to receive?
But it doesn't ever get called. I set a breakpoint and debugged it. Just
acts like nothing is ever sent to the socket from my telnet. I can send
FROM the socket and the text will be displayed correctly on the telnet
window...
This was tested on Windows XP if it makes a difference.
The server I am writing is a POP3 server.
So, just to test that telnet wasn't just wacko, I also had Outlook Express
connect. It received my intial welcome message, but I never receive OE's
command.
Any ideas?

I'm not sure but I think you have to map an OnRecieve message in a message map.

Hmm... I thought it was just a virtual function...

I'm not sure it has been a while since I have worked with OnReceive.
I just checked it and it is virtual.
There isn't by chance anything running on that port is there?

No, I do have a *real* mail server, but I made sure that it was shutdown before I tried this.
And the telnet side can receive, cause I can 'send' text and it is displayed on the telnet window, just doesn't seem to go the other way around...

The OnXXX "events" are part of CAsyncSocket, and are not mapped for CSocket. If you want asyncronous communications, then derive from CAsyncSocket instead.

I am currently working on an program that needs to delete itself when executed. How would I go about achieving this? Is it possible to do while it is executing, and if not (which I expect), how would I go about deleting it and the directory it resides in after the next reboot?
[edit:]
Ravi mentioned that when the app ends, it should add a registry entry (I forget which) requesting Windows to delete it the next time Windows restarts (in a reply to Mazdak's similar question). Does any one know wha tthis is, before I set aside six hours to try and searh MSDN?
Any help will be appreciated!

Well I had guessed as much, in which case I am going to have to stick with the second approach; just how to do it? I can think of two different approaches, but I don't think either is the correct way to do it.
I'll let you know if I find a solution.

I think it must be relative to the time of day.

But I don't think so,If I don't make mistake I THINK one of person that answer me that time was Ravi,but not the same answer. He learn something during these days that he didn't know that day.

Depends on the platform. Windows prevents you from deleting files that are running, in DOS though you could have made an application that deleted itself since it goes into RAM on runtime.
Anyway, you could probably edit Autoexec.bat, Win.ini or the registry to make sure it is deleted on the next reboot.
