*****I DID NOT WRITE THIS. I FRESHED UP THE CODE***
I have, on many occasions, found the need to be able to perform
a Ping function from within Visual Basic. There are a few OCX
Controls available on the market, however, they all require the
ability for the WinSock stack to support SOCK_RAW.
Microsoft does not support Raw Sockets on any of their WinSock1.1
stacks. It also appears that it will not be supported on the
Winsock2.0 stack for Windows95.
Raw Sockets, however, is supported on NT4.0.
Microsoft, due to the lack of support of Raw Sockets, created the
ICMP.DLL in order to perform basic ICMP functions such as PING and
TRACERT.
Well, I have finally figured out how to use the ICMP.DLL from Visual
Basic. There are not additives and no preservatives.
This program is provided as is, without any warranties. I am providing
it freely. I designed it on Windows95, however, I am sure it will work
on NT3.51. if you use portions of this code, please include some sort
of reference to the author.
This program was created by Jim Huff of Edinborg Productions.
