I have a program that sends data to the home IP to the port####.

I want to access this and make it readable data. Maybe in C#?

I haven't tried doing this before and I have only a vague idea of doing sockets.

Any ideas as to how I can manage this?

Thanks - Ree

EDIT

The program I'm trying access is a UDP. Therefore it's a UDP port reader I need to incorporate on another program.

"####" < is just any random number.

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language.
