Thanks Paul, I will check that return value.
In case it says that the data has not been sent, I think I will make the
thread sleep for a while. But when it wake up, I would need to check if the
old data has been sent... should I invoke the SendTo() method again ,with the
same data ?
The best would be to invoke a method to check the amount of data in the
SendBuffer. Is this possible ? (can the IOControl() method do that?)

Thanks in advance,

Lionel
