can anyone tell me wht is the significance of calling MAKEWORD( )
function ??

This is part of the C++ socket wrapper class from the MSDN...

Nah, it's a macro that I wrote long ago - before MS even had their own
C compiler. It combines two characters into a 16-bit word.

yeah sure... how about you search for it on google and see were you find
it..

Google doesn't know everything. I already know exactly where to find
it. Has it really come to this - people think Google encompasses the
total of human knowledge?

you should then sue ms for piracy ;-)

Huh? I never tried to trademark it, and I suspect MS's implementation
was independently developed. OTOH, it might be cheaper for them to
settle ...

I trust that you do get the point - the macro in question (if it is a
macro) is not necessarily what you told the OP it is, and although it
might be implemented in standard C, discussing it in c.l.c is
pointless without seeing the implementation.

I don't know how the OP found it ;-)
