Ping function

Hi All,

I'm searching for a ping function programming in vbs, like :

ping( ipadress ) return true if ipadress can be pinged and false if cannot.

Thanks in advance !

Hi

The VBScript function IsConnectible in the link below will work on all OS
versions (it uses ping.exe to ping the host to see if it is online):

I suggest you to use WMI (Win32_PingStatus). Search google for examples.
