Socket Connection via Excel

[Alexander Weiner]

Hello,

is it possible to connect my Excel Sheet via VBA to a socket Server on the
same machine?

In my situation I hava a service, that listen on port 13000 and sends by
accessing special data to the client. So I do only need to send data to this
port from my excel sheet.

Thanks for all answers.

Yes, you can do this - you will need a socket library - check out this link
