[AccessD] detect network

You could either use the network API calls to get the network connection
information or presumably when they are connected there will be a
network path name you could try to access to see if its connected.

The network path is probably the QAD method.

Subject: [AccessD] detect network


We've got a data collection application that will be run on disconnected
laptops.  At least once a week the laptop users will come in to the home
office to dump the data they've collected into our central SQL database.
Does anyone have any code that will detect that the laptop is connected
to our network so we can point their connection to the central DB (as
opposed to their local DB)?  Or should we just try to hit the central DB
at app start and trap the error?  I don't want to generate an error if I
don't have to.

Thanks,

Jim DeMarco
