I think so.  Problem with Named pipes, is that it locks the thread that is
'listening'.  Since an .mdb is single threaded, it didn't work too well.
Using the UDP method allows for a network 'broadcast' however.  Very quick
and efficient.

Hi Drew

Great!
Didn't you do something similar some years back with Named Pipes? I still
have a zip from you with some NP stuff ...

Didn't hear back from you about this.  But I just looked, I have the sample
available at http://www.marlow.com/RemoteShutdown.zip.  It has an A2k .mdb
with a form (that you open hidden with your application).  Then there is a
VB form that you can use to shutdown, message, or prompt/shutdown all remote
clients on your network.  The source and .exe for the VB program is in the
zip.  You can open them with notepad if you don't have VB 6, and make a
similar project in Access.

Subject: [AccessD] Raise Event Across Network

Hello,
Is it possible to Raise an Event Across A Network In Access of the same app?

Sort of like a communication channel between the same app on network...
