Problem with winsock.sendData on chinese operative systems VB6

[nicogalan]

Hello, I have coded a software, and its working fine on latin and english operative systems, but it does not work godd on Chinese Windoxs XPI have a module, for strings, conversion etc etc....Code is:
 

st1 = HexToAsc("100404084A011004C8DC")Winsock2.SendData st1

in latin server / client app, I receive very same string I sent....

 

I use winsock.GetData but on chinese windows xp it does not
 

I receive this:

100404084A0110040000 (C8DC is now 0000)what could the problem be??

 

unicode related??

 

thanks

yeh i'd point the finger at unicode or right to left stuff...

without seeing the actual code, its hard to say, but its a good place to start

Thanks, there is not much to see in the code...

 

here it is....

Private Sub Command7_Click()

Winsock2.Connect
End Sub

Private Sub XT_Click()

st1 = HexToAsc("100404084A011004C8DC")

Winsock2.SendData st1
Timer1.Enabled = True
End Sub

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()

    Dim daAr() As Byte

    Dim daStrg As String
    Text3 = T1

    If T1 >= 5 Then

        MsgBox "Timeout", vbCritical, "Timeout"

        Timer1.Enabled = False

        T1 = 0
        Exit Sub

        End If
    If Winsock2.State = 7 And T1 >= 2 Then
        Winsock2.GetData daAr

    daStrg = StrConv(daAr, vbUnicode)

    Text1 = daStrg

    Text2 = StringToHex(daStrg)

    Text2 = Replace(Text2, " ", "")

        Timer1.Enabled = False
        T1 = 0

        End If

    T1 = T1 + 1

End Sub

I connect, then send the data (data is converted to from hex to ascii by a function in module)

 

then I call to timer, it waits for 2 seconds, and then reads reply...

 

problem is sending data....

 

no matter about right to left, because if I invert string like this: st1 = HexToAsc("C8DC100404084A011004")

 

0000100404084A011004 is sent....

 

thanks
