Executing a Network connection

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/Executing a Network connection

Anyone have any idea how to make a blitz program to execute a dialup/network connection? I tried making a shortcut, but it won't do anything. And network connections doesn't save it in a file, in the shortcut properties it list targe: {ERADFSDF} or something, but no file name. Anyone got code showing how to make a modem dial out, or connect?

Okay, lemme reinstate this. I was trying to get blitz3d to run the dial up connection. How can I do this? anyone have any ideas?

IM pretty sure you can use AT commands, but how you go about that i dont know, probrably a DLL.

This is interesting, Ca anyone else help out some more?

I don't know how to implement it in Blitz but this link might be a starting point:

If RunDLL is a command then you may be able to 'Execute' it?

*** Forget that, its for Win95, sorry ***

A quick search on Google with 'dial command line' brings up a large amount of dialers that can be run from the command line, if you can find one with a 'silent' parameter you might be able to use ExecFile to run it, i guess you would have to do it via a batch file so that you can add the parameters you need.

Just a thought :)
