Reading packets from UDP port

[Pashlipops]

Hi there

I am looking for some guidance.

I am new to C++ and whilst I am reading up about the language, my
actual goal is to create a program that reads a UDP packet sent by a
data logger and displays the reults real-time on screen.

The UDP packet is sent every 200ms. I know the port. I have Windows
Vicual C++ Express Edition running under XP.

Can anyone point me in the direction of any source code that can do any
of this? I have looked at teh source code for Wireshark, but cannot
identify which bit of the code is reading the packets.

TIA
