Im writing an application in C++ MFC that involves the CSocket class. My program works fine but when I use the CSocket::Accept function the program hangs untill it has received a connection from the client.

Heres basically how my code is written:

CSocket socketSvr;
CSocket client;
socketSvr.Create(2000); //Create the socket
socketSvr.Listen(1); //Listen for connections
socketSvr.Accept(client); //Accept a connection

It is at this point while waiting for the client to connect that the program hangs. This is because the Accept function will not return untill the client has connected. Is there another way to get the Accept function to return? Am I doing something wrong?

There should be an event for the CSocket class that lets you know that a client is attempting to connect. You should put your Accept code in there.
