remember that those 5 characters may be whatever character (well, not all, but nearly all), so you can, for example, encode that number from 1 to 40 using only 1 character and in that character you may be able to encode the card number too so you can put a 4-chars code and 1 char of data. That would be better because would reduce the problems I've said in my previous post

that's quite complicated...you have to know about how to call APIs in VB6 and also you have to have a good knoweldge of WinSockets.... It's quite complex to explain it here (and now I don't have the needed time). Search about Winsock and Windows API in VB. You'll find lots of tutorials, sure; and it'd be easier when you get used to it
