Board index » Visual Studio » Shutdown DUN connection

Visual Studio6
How can I, from an external program, shut down a Dial Up Network or whatever

it is called in XP, connection?



The two computers (icon in the tray).



I wish to be able to send a disconnect and cause that program to exit

memory.



I have a program that automates my ISP connect experience and loads all

appropraite programs etc and for the most part shutsdown but don't know how

to do this last step.



Thanks,



Shane

you can use the shell command to run the RASDIAL [connectionname]

/DISCONNECT



ie shell("rasdial myisp /disconnect")
