Connect to unix client vba

Hi Olivia Talley,

You said that you would like to connect to Unix using VB code. You can archive that by including winstock control. Winstock helps you to connect to the Unix port and talk to Unix system. To connect to Unix server follow the following steps:

1. First connect to Unix server by typing winstock1 connect.
2. Specify the protocol either tcp/ip.
3. Use winstock1.senddata to send the Unix command and if that command returns some value that can be captured by winstock1.getdata command.

 

I hope this will help you.
