TCP Client to send text files to a tcp server.

This proposal is to write a visual basic project that will run/compile in 32 or 64 bit mode under Microsoft Visual Studio 2010. The opening screen is to come up with logo and version information with menus at across the top to include COMMS, LOG, CONTRO, HELP and CLOSE/EXIT: COMMS: This will bring up a window that shows the setup variables (called profile) to include: a. Manually set frequency (frequency list to be provided to the programmer) a. Manually set frequency (frequency list to be provided to the programmer)or, use the COM serial port to get the frequency information from an Icom radio. A box in this window will show the frequency read. b. Type of radio. This will select the ident of the Icom radio as each model has a different "address". Those addresses will be provide. This will be a drop down list to select the proper radio. c. The IP/Hostname of the TCP server d. The port of the TCP server e. A password/keyword to access the server up to 64 characters f. A password/keyword box that shows the responding keyword from the tcp server up to 64 characters. g. Directory selection for the directory to watch for new files. COMMS must support more than one of the above setups running at the same time. Each configuration will be called a profile and be capable of watching different directories and all the specifications as above. For example, two profiles could be running at the same time watching different directory, having different frequency or radio attached (via a com port), a different host/port, etc. Error checking to require all the information (a, b, c, d, e and g) is there before the profile can be saved. A method of deleting the profile should be available. A button that will test the setup should be in the profile called TEST. Clicking this will send a test string to the tcp server and expect an "OK" back. Verification or failure should be noted on the screen. LOG: This will keep a record of the transmissions sent and received. a. Need to be able to turn on and off -- simple check box. b. Selection box to set the location and name of the log. c. Window to view the log file (see comments below) LOG will log the (1)time of the communication, (2)the host/ip/port and (3) the filename that was sent. An option to include the actual data sent should be included.. LOG will create a new log file for each day. CONTROL: a. Start b. Stop There also needs to be a flag that will cause the program to automatically start upon execution. HELP a. Submenu for About for information, version number, etc. CLOSE a. Close the program. Confirm that the user wants to close. The main purpose of the program is to watch for new files to be added to a directory or directories based on the profile's specified directory and then send that file to the tcp server in standard text. Also want to append the frequency that was manually specified or read from the radio. This can be done by adding a line with a special keyword at the end of the file before transmission. Upon reading a file, want to rename it to something else based on a format which will normally be like [login to view URL] to [login to view URL] to show it has been sent. Of course, that format can be used to look for fresh files without having to build a database, etc. Have a combined log of the communications with the server, but also be able to monitor each of the above tcp communications based on each profile. Would be good to be able to assign colors to each tcp profile communication to be able to easily discern between them. The name of the project/exe file will be provided later. Three files are attached. 1. Is a VB6 [login to view URL] has Icom radio scripts. 2. [login to view URL] is bad project file from last programmer. 3. hsr_server.c is a basic tcp_server for receive.
