Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> tnsping API call
I've built a VB6 program that uses Oracle Objects to connect to Oracle =
7.3.4. Sometimes the program has a problem instantiating Objects and =
generates a very vague error. I'd like to be able to call something =
like tnsping or tnsping80 to check the connection from the next level =
below Objects so I can narrow down the source of the problem before =
passing along an error message to the user. Is there something like an =
API call to SQLNet or Net80 that will do this? I really am trying to =
avoid shelling out to a DOS window - plus then it's up to the user to =
decipher the result.
TIA
