[Windows-ATM] How to get CPCS-PDU length?

Hi

I'm developing an application on the Win98 platform that uses a
ATM socket. I'm doing this using Winsock 2 ATM extension. (My 
ATM adapter is Olicom 6162)

The problem I faced is that there is no boundary marker in the 
binary data because the ATM socket is connection oriented. The 
only way to break up the data correctly is to know how big each 
packet is, but this information is not embedded in the data 
itself.

Is there any way, either using Winsock or other API, that I can 
access the length field of the CPCS-PDU Trailer? (I've looked 
hard at the Winsock API but couldn't find one).If not, is there 
other solutions for me to read the data correctly?

Thank you.

Yeow Cheong
