    @vinci : You should have a good understanding of JMF(Java Media Framework). I believe that there were discussions on this on CE some time ago, just search for JMF on this board and hopefully you can find it.
    Go through this link as well.

    Study the code below.You will get pretty good idea.Modify it according to your needs.And similarly write server code for this code to work.

    package javaapplication1;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import java.net.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class Client extends Frame implements ActionListener,Runnable
    {
    Socket s;
    BufferedReader br;
    BufferedWriter bw;
    TextField text;
    Button button1,button2;
    List list;
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
    new Client("Client Application:");
    }
    public void run()
    {
    try
    {
    s.setSoTimeout(1);
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
    }
    while(true)
    {
    try
    {
    list.addItem(br.readLine());
    }
    catch(Exception h)
    {}

    }
    }

    public Client(String m)
    {
    super(m);
    setSize(200,300);
    setLocation(300,0);
    this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    button1=new Button("Send");
    button2=new Button("Exit");
    button1.addActionListener(this);
    button2.addActionListener(this);
    list=new List();
    text=new TextField();
    add(list,"Center");
    add(button1,"West");
    add(button2,"East");
    add(text,"South");
    setVisible(true);
    try
    {
    s=new Socket("192.168.0.141",100);
    br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(s.getInputStream()));
    bw=new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(s.getOutputStream()));
    Thread th;
    th=new Thread(this);
    th.start();
    }
    catch(Exception e)
    {
    }
    }
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
    {
    if(e.getSource().equals(button2))
    {
    System.exit(0);
    }
    else
    {
    try
    {
    bw.write(text.getText());
    bw.newLine();
    bw.flush();
    }
    catch(Exception m)
    {}
    }
    }
    }
