How to encapsulate or automate Dial-up in my apps (running WinXP)?

Hi all,

I want to automate dial up process with VFP. Bill Sanders point me to:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q168/2/56.ASP

But I couldn't run it from WinXP.

Ideas?

TIA,
Willianto

There's a great RAS/DUN sample in the STRUCT class by Christof Lange. You
can download it from the universalthread.com.

Pheew...
Took me some time to search the download. The download id is #9557.
Thanks Eric. I'll check out the struct class and post back should I
still have this problem.

Hi Eric,

I've tried the sample. It's not running on my box. The program fail to
connect, but seems like it does something 'unfinished'. I cannot open
DUN afterwards. It kept sending me to the connection properties windows
instead of the connect to window.

Does it run on your box? I am using Windows XP.

The code is working fine in of my apps and under all Win32 operating
systems. Do you get an error message?

Hi Willianto,

If you're on the same project as earlier, see my post in your "How to
automate file transfer via modem (Will pcAnywhere do?)" thread in this NG.

Hi Willianto,

From http://www.news2news.com/vfp/?example=312&function=482

#DEFINE INTERNET_AUTODIAL_FORCE_ONLINE 1
#DEFINE INTERNET_AUTODIAL_FORCE_UNATTENDED 2
#DEFINE INTERNET_AUTODIAL_FAILIFSECURITYCHECK 4

DECLARE INTEGER GetActiveWindow IN user32

DECLARE INTEGER InternetDial IN wininet;
INTEGER hwndParent, STRING lpszConnectoid, INTEGER dwFlags,;
INTEGER @lpdwConnection, INTEGER dwReserved

LOCAL hConnection
hConnection = 0

? InternetDial (GetActiveWindow(), "MyDUNConnectionName",;
INTERNET_AUTODIAL_FORCE_ONLINE, @hConnection, 0)

HTH
