Sending data by UDP

[elfranzen]

I have searched high and low for sending a simple UDP command. It looks like it might have been possible with older versions of access but the newer version maybe not. Does anyone have any info on sending a simple UDP command via VBA. I just want to take a number from a query and broadcast it to 10.20.20.255 via port 5000. very simple but yet seems impossible.

Thanks

Create a batch file with the following and run it from Access. I obtained this snipet from here. Here is an example for creating the bat. It is an unresolved question, but it should still help you out.
