Hello Guy,
********
Next time, if you're asking a question that doesn't have anything to do
with Ethereal on an Ethereal list, you should at least make it clear
what you're really asking, so we don't incorrectly conclude that you're
typing the F7 to Ethereal and want to make Ethereal do something with
the F7.
********
Well actually it did have to do with Ethereal. I was attempting to understand the results Ethereal was giving me. Having never used the program before I wanted to make sure my understanding was correct. If it was not, the input I was writing to send would be flawed. I am sure other users on your list have used vb.net (did you know that you are not the only user on this list?) and I was trying to benefit from their experience. I merely gave the information so that other users would understand what I was attempting to do and why I was doing it.
If I was not clear I apologize.
Sue me and get it over with.

"Wrap"? What sort of wrap?
**********
Some mail readers would wrap the text I had placed there. I was letting the reader know there was not suppose to be a text wrap in that sentence. Is this an issue for you as well?

I wouldn't - "Chr(27)" sounds as if it's BASIC (Visual Basic?), and I
don't know enough about BASIC (much less Visual Basic) to say why the 27
(which *is* an ESC character) isn't getting sent.
********
So forgive me your highness for asking the question. Some of us have interests beyond this particular one piece of software and use it as a tool to help with other projects.
**********
If you're trying to write BASIC programs to send particular sequences
over, for example, a Telnet connection, you'd probably be best advised
to ask in some mailing list, newsgroup, Web bulletin board, etc. that
deals with BASIC, or ask the supplier of your BASIC interpreter/compiler
(e.g., Microsoft, if it's Visual Basic).
**********
Which I did incidnetally. And if I bring up the name of Ethereal as having given me the input they probably would tell me to post here? Don't you think it is possible one or more developers at one time or another have been members of this list and had the same or similar questions come up concerning how to interpret the results Ethereal gives you? Or were all born with the knowledge of all things related to Ethereal?
Just because I do .NET and you don't know anything about it does not make my question any less valid than another. Perhaps in your eyes but that does not make it right.
