New to 'Packets'

I am a complete newb at this but I'd like to know how. I'd like to be actually legit at coding bots and to further my programming knowledge. Thanks in advance.

Networks, I would strongly suggest you practice programming the fundamentals.  For example, can you do the following?

* Read the first line of text from a file.
* Read the Nth line of text from a file.
* Read N lines from a file.
* Find a string within a file.
* Count the occurences of a string within a file.
* Write text lines to a new file.
* Append a new line to a text file.
* Replace all occurences of a string within a file.

* Read INI files.
* Write INI files.

* Open a binary file.
* Read all data from a binary file in blocks.
* Find specific bytes of data in a binary file.
* Write a new record to a binary file.
* Overwrite a specific record in a binary file.
* Find and replace specific fields in all records of a binary file.
* * where some condition is true about that record.

* Open an Access database.
* Open a table and walk through a table.
* Read data from the columns into your program.
* Change data in a table.
* Append new records to a table.

* Create a status bar on your VB form. (style=Simple)
* Update the SimpleText on your status bar as conditions change in your program.
* Create a normal style status bar with 3 panels.
* Add a date panel, clock panel, caps lock panel, numlock panel, to your status bar.
* Write program status to the 3rd panel that is not one of the special panels.
* Add graphics and icons to the status bar panels.

* Add a menu to your form.
* Add commands for your program's abilities to the menu.
* Have menu items that turn features on/off with checkmarks showing their status.

* Add a toolbar to your form with 10 buttons.
* Have each button invoke one of your program procedures.
* Map each button to a menu item.

* Allow user to resize your form, and it resizes all the controls on it to fit the new size.
* If a parent control gets resized, any child controls inside it also get resized to fit.

* Use a treeview
* Let users left-click and right-click on your nodes to do functions.

* All controls have a popup menu when user right-clicks on them, if any action can be performed.

Those are some suggestions.  Learn how to do most of those before worrying about advanced controls like Winsock.
