I need help in trying to send a file fo size, around 1MB, through a TCP connection. Does any of you have any recommendations sites?

Thank you!

Are you asking how to create a TCP Connection, or are you having issues with file sizes?

The TcpClient class is there to help you create TCP Connections. If you are having a particular issue with this class then please be more specific.

Thanks for the fast reply.

My TCP connection is already done. However, I have trouble sending a file over the TCP connection. Do you have a guide on how i can accomplish this?

Thank you so much!

I usually just open a FileStream, get the TcpClient's NetworkStream, and transfer the bytes a batch at a time.

I don't know, as I don't use the .Net Compact Framework, but I've very sure if you read the MSDN entry it will tell you explicitly if it is included in the Compact Framework.
