vb file transfer between two programs
First of all, I would like to send my best thank to all of you who have answered my questions. But it seems that I really need your help more!
Actually, I'm in the 3rd week of this semester, and I'm studying the subject called DATA COMUNICATION. This project belongs to this subject. I've just learnt something and really now, I do not fully understand all that you post. It would be kind of you if you can give me some of the basis knowledge!
Now, I'm wondering, where can I start this project! This is my idea, I don't know whether it's correct or not because my knowledge on this subject is not enough!
- firstly, I have to write a program. It must detect a control signal from the computer connected to it. If this signal "tells" me that, this computer want to send me a file. Then, my PC is ready to receive.
- Secondly, I want to send the PC connected to mine a file. First, I will have to send a signal to let this PC know my intend. Then, If this PC accept my file, I'll have to send the file to COM port!
- Thirdly, I have to use modem to implement the file tranfer between two PC? Is there any other ways that do not involve the modem?
Right now, I do not have any more idea! Please help me, explain in detail the process, some basic knowledge is better now.
Can you recommend me some useful links related to this project, even the most basic ones!
Thank you beforehand!
