Client/server Application
Can anyone point me into the right direction to find information on this? -- I have a program that is only designed for a single user, and I need to convert it into the client part of a client/server application. This client will obviously be on multiple computers accessing the same server. How do I handle all the users and be able to deal with them separately on this server. I know that in C++ I can just use threads, but I don't want to rewrite the program in a new language (time crunch). Each client will be extracting data from a database, and I need to know who is who becuase they will be having live data sent to them as it is updated on the server. Please Help!?!?!

Client/Server Application In VB6
I am trying to write a Client/Server application using VB6 ActiveX exe. I have two interfaces for the server and two clients. I need to call a method from client1 to fire an event to client2. When I define

Private WithEvents server as clsServer
Private interface as Interface1

Private Sub Form_Load()
Set server = new clsServer
Set interface1 = server
End Sub

Private Sub Client1Event()
interface.FireClien2Event
End Sub

Client1 calls Client1Event to fire an event, client1 can catch the event but client2 does not. This is because both clients created a copy of the server.
What can I do to make this work so that clients can call methods to fire events for each other?

1. Add record (by one or many users at different or at the same time)
2. Update same or different record(by one or many users at different or at the same time)
3. Delete record under same situation.
If A,B,C,D are users.Can the record can be viewed by any no. of users(clients) without any problem?But how to restrict other users(B,C,D) to update/add/delete a specific record if that record is being used by a user(A)?And processing should be fast without getting an error/corruption of database/data duplicacy/data redundany. what about transaction handling?
I have worked only on desktop application using VB and SQL Server..At what points this client server application will be different from desktop application??Please help me in this regard..Its urgent for me.

Simple Client/Server Ideas Needed
I'm in the process of developing a simple turn-based board game (we all remember Battleship, right?). I wasn't sure to put this here or in the Comm area. Anyway, here's what I'm thinking:

The server (simple web server) will store the files. I'm thinking of a couple text files. One will be used for player turn (0 or 1). Another file will hold the array of ship placement. For example:

Code:
[player 1]
Battleship=A1A6
etc

[player 2]
Battleship=B2G2
The other file will hold the firing coordinates.

What do you think about this setup? I may add additional files for things like stats and what not. I will be using WinSock so I'm not even sure if I'll need the "turn" file. I'm open to all suggestions.

1/ Do I need to design/code something (I've coded username and password to login feature in my application) in my program to handle client/server things or W2K Terminal Service will be capable of it??

2/ Is any special setup or installation if there is a case that W2K can not handle it?

How To Run An Application From Server By Client Request
Hi,
may i ask you a simple (or complicated?) question.

how can I create an server-type application (or just a simple application)
which would be run only from server according to Clients requests.

In other words, how to avoid installation software/application on each network computer and run the application on it from server, i.e. create instances
of it on each computer and receive resulting data on server?

Thank you in advance,

Building Client Server Application
Yes, you must connect to the sqerver using some kind of data object..

I would strongly recomend ADO..

Once you established a connection you can do almost anything on the server...

Updating A Client Server Application
I have written a client server application in vb6 (vb client to oracle 8.6). I am currently pushing a new executable to each client whenever there are changes. I am interested in having the client search for updates on a server or over the web and initiate the update process without user intervention. Some remote clients are being updated using remote admin software. Cannot move to a new version of vb at this time.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

PLEASE HELP - Creating Client Server Application
PLEASE HELP - Creating Client Server Application
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I created both client and server in VB6
The client is a regular VB application and the server is a ActiveX-EXE type of application.

The Client starts the server application using the CreateObject command.

Network in discuss:
Windows network (means no server is available, but each computer can reach each other hard disk).
No computer is defined as server, neither has IP address

Description of the current status and problem:
Let's Call the PC where the database resides F (Just a name for the description no more than that)
at the moment each client generates it's own server at the client PC machine. This server access the database at computer F

My questions are:
1. How Can I make the client on all the computers to generate the server application at computer F?
2. How can I share the server, if allready created , among the different clients (Clients will share the same server at computer F, instead having a server created for each client )

Thanks

?'s About Winsock Client/server Application *Not Resolved*
ok this is the first time that i have ever used winsock in any application that i've written so any help would be greatly appreciated. here is my question:

1) i have a server app that all the clients will connect to for database operations and logons, (the server app is also going to be automated to do DB operations, not that anyone needed to know, but hey whatever), this has a winsock control.

2) now for the clients. when the app loads a login form pops up for the user to login. there is a winsock control on this form. when the form load it attempts to connect to the server. if connected when the user clicks the login it will send the user name and password to the server and the server will send back authentication to allow logging in.

3) here is were my many problem is. upon authentication the login form unloads and the mdi form is loaded which has a winsock control on it as well. HERE IS MY MAIN QUESTION: is there a way to lets say set the mdi form winsock control to the login winsock control or still have the mdi form winsock control know that it is still connected to the server so that i don't have to make it connect again.

here is my theory please let me know if it would work.

VB Code:
set mdiSocket = logSocket

Please any help or suggestions would be great

Timeout Problems With VB/ASP/SQL Client Server Application
We have an Intranet program with an ASP user interface that uses VB DLL's/RDO to connect to a SQL database. We are using ADO in the ASP's to connect to the SQL database for queries.

The problem that we are having is we are getting "Timeouts" when the SQL database is being accessed from the web pages.

We have increased the Timeout settings for IE, ADO, RDO and IIS, but we still need to improve the performance of the program.

We have researched the problem on MSDN and done some re-configuring in SQL, but have not been able to resolve this issue.

Any and all suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

Chris

FYI...we're running IE 4, SQL 6.5, Visual Interdev 6.0, VB 6 and IIS 4.0.

Web Client And Server Application Event Notification
I'm working on a project that requires a Web GUI connected to a server
backend application. When a user clicks a button on the GUI the Web
client sends a message to the server application which updates a
database and notifies all Web clients on the LAN that the button has
been pressed. This is the simpliest form of the system which I would
then develop into a complete application. I plan on developing the Web
GUI as an ActiveX Document and the server application as a stand alone
VB application.

1. How does the Web client notify the server that a button has been
pressed?
2. How does the server notify all the other Web clients on the LAN?
3. I've been reading about Microsoft Messaging Queue (MSMQ). Is that a
good way of sending messages between the client and server or is there
a better way?

Any Websites, books, source codes, or example applications would be
very helpful. Thanks.

Client/Server Application&&database Distribution
Hello,
I have developed a client/server application that uses an Access database as a backend. I will install it soon at the customer´s site, but I have some questions:
At my developing computer, I´m using App.Path & "DBName.mdb" for opening the connection to the database (I´m using ADO). This of course works fine as the database is in the same computer, and will also work fine for installing the application at the customer´s server.
But how do I install at the client machines? Do I have to prepare a second installation package where I´d have to hard code the server´s path and recompile? This second package won´t of course contain the database as it will be already stored at the server. (I´m using the P&D wizard).
I don´t know the target db path at the moment, I will know it when I do the installation and I don´t want to be recompiling at the customer´s site!
Is there any other professional but easy way to tell the client application where the DB is stored without having to alter the program?
Thanks in advance.
