Function name : InternetAttemptConnect

Group: Internet Functions (WinInet) - Library: wininet

Attempts to make a connection to the Internet.

Declaration:

DWORD InternetAttemptConnect(
	DWORD dwReserved
);

FoxPro declaration:

DECLARE INTEGER InternetAttemptConnect IN wininet;
	INTEGER dwReserved

Parameters:

dwReserved [in] Reserved. Must be set to 0.

Return value:

Returns 0 (ERROR_SUCCESS) if successful, or a Microsoft® Win32® error value otherwise.

Comments:

This function allows an application to first attempt to connect before issuing any requests. A client program can use this to evoke the dial-up dialog box. If the attempt fails, the application should enter offline mode.

Notice that this function returns 0 if successful, comparing to True being returned by similar functions InternetAutodial and InternetGoOnline.
