Socket API Documentation?

For my sins, I've been given a program to write that uses the Framework
Sockets classes. Needless to say, I'm getting problems as I'm going
along, but by far my biggest woe is MSDN!

Virtually every Socket method says something like ...

If you get an Exception, get the ErrorCode property and look it up in
the "Windows Sockets Version 2 API error code Documentation".

.... but can I find it???

Does /anyone/ have a URL for this documentation?
Even searching MSDN on the web fails to find it!

TIA,
Phill W.
