Boxer,
Thank you for your suggestions. I'm not a real good VB programmer so that winsock thing is gonna be a lot of work like you were saying.
But that dataworx looks pretty neat - the only thing is that it doesn't seem to be a typical polling product where the PC just constantly interrogates...
Anyone familiar with getting AutomationDirect DL205 and DL405 PLCs to work with databases? Currently looking for something where I can add an entry to database for each cycle.
Thanks,
Harvey
