From my PC PBWin app, I want to send a string to a server app, have the server app look up the string in a text database, then return the string and any associated information to my PBWin app. The returned string might be as much as 4K bytes.
That sounds like a straight forward thing to do but it's outside my usual areas of expertise.
Looking up the string with the server app should be easy enough to do. But how to send the lookup string to the server app from my PC PBWin app and then returning the lookup results from the server app to my PC PBWin are nothing I'm familiar with.
It seems like the task ought to be very straightforward but as I say, it's nothing I've done before.
Can anyone point to a simple example showing the basics of the task?
