title: C# UDP Socket client and server
body: <p>My first question here. I am new to this kind of programming, and i've only programmed .NET web sites and forms.</p>
  
  <p>Now, the company I work at, asks me to make an ActiveX component, that listens to UDP messages, and turns them into events.</p>
  
  <p>The UDP msgs are send from Avaya system, so i was told that to test my ActiveX, at first I need to create an app, that only sends UDP (only one button that sends pre-defined UDP string). And then create listener socket, ordinary C# app, that will get those transmitted UDP string from the tests app. Both apps will work on the same machine.</p>
  
  <p>Later, when i get this working, i need to make the listener an ActiveX component, but first things first.</p>
  
  <p>I need to know if there are any good tutorials about this, and any idea on how to start? I am sorry for my ignorance, but i am really new on this and i don't really have any time to learn this since it has to be done in 2 weeks.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
  
  <p>edit: I managed to create 2 simple console applications, and was sending UDP messages between them successfully. The sender will be only for testing, and now I need to re-make my receiver to get the UDP message and 'translate' it to events. And lastly, to make it an ActiveX control...</p>
