Also, it is not possible for SOCKETERROR() to return something other than a 
number*.  If no error has occurred, it returns zero.  Perhaps yv is defined 
with a length/edit that cannot hold the number?  Why use a temporary 
variable to hold the value?

     mesgbox "Last socket error = " < socketerror()


[*] If you have pre-5.6.07 and do not have a socket license, it was possible 
for socket functions to crash filePro rather than return the error code.
