ahire, if what you want is to transfer a file over a socket here's an example of a sender. If you need the reciever code too, let me know.
public void run()
          FileInputStream inFile = null;
          try
               Boolean done = false;
               int inByte;
               inFile = new FileInputStream(filename);
               byte[] byteBuffer = new byte[128000];
               while(!done)
                    inByte = inFile.read(byteBuffer, 0, byteBuffer.length);                         
                    if (inByte == -1)
                         done = true;
                    else
                         out.write(byteBuffer, 0, inByte);
               inFile.close();
          catch (Exception e)
               try {inFile.close();}
               catch (Exception ex) {ex.printStackTrace();}
               try{Thread.sleep(10);}catch(Exception ex){}
               JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Error sending file " + filename + "\nError: " + e.toString(),"Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
     }Pd: As I see your english isn't so good... I can help you in spanish or italian too... just let me know. Regards,
