Does an inet transfer control close the progs connection to the internet automatically, or is there a way to close the connection manually?

Does an inet transfer control close the progs connection to the internet automatically, or is there a way to close the connection manually?
I don't think MSInet can do that. But you can disconnect from the internet another way:
Code:Public Const RAS_MAXENTRYNAME As Integer = 256
Public Const RAS_MAXDEVICETYPE As Integer = 16
Public Const RAS_MAXDEVICENAME As Integer = 128
Public Const RAS_RASCONNSIZE As Integer = 412
Public Const ERROR_SUCCESS = 0&
Public Type RasEntryName
dwSize As Long
szEntryName(RAS_MAXENTRYNAME) As Byte
End Type
Public Type RasConn
dwSize As Long
hRasConn As Long
szEntryName(RAS_MAXENTRYNAME) As Byte
szDeviceType(RAS_MAXDEVICETYPE) As Byte
szDeviceName(RAS_MAXDEVICENAME) As Byte
End Type
Public Declare Function RasEnumConnections Lib _
"rasapi32.dll" Alias "RasEnumConnectionsA" (lpRasConn As _
Any, lpcb As Long, lpcConnections As Long) As Long
Public Declare Function RasHangUp Lib "rasapi32.dll" Alias _
"RasHangUpA" (ByVal hRasConn As Long) As Long
Public gstrISPName As String
Public ReturnCode As Long
Public Sub HangUp()
Dim i As Long
Dim lpRasConn(255) As RasConn
Dim lpcb As Long
Dim lpcConnections As Long
Dim hRasConn As Long
lpRasConn(0).dwSize = RAS_RASCONNSIZE
lpcb = RAS_MAXENTRYNAME * lpRasConn(0).dwSize
lpcConnections = 0
ReturnCode = RasEnumConnections(lpRasConn(0), lpcb, _
lpcConnections)
If ReturnCode = ERROR_SUCCESS Then
For i = 0 To lpcConnections - 1
If Trim(ByteToString(lpRasConn(i).szEntryName)) _
= Trim(gstrISPName) Then
hRasConn = lpRasConn(i).hRasConn
ReturnCode = RasHangUp(ByVal hRasConn)
End If
Next i
End If
End Sub
Public Function ByteToString(bytString() As Byte) As String
Dim i As Integer
ByteToString = ""
i = 0
While bytString(i) = 0&
ByteToString = ByteToString & Chr(bytString(i))
i = i + 1
Wend
End Function
Usage:
Call HangUp
Okay, what if I dont want to disconnect from the internet completely, is the application with the Inet control going to stay connected to the site, and if so, does that cause any problems, like eating up sys resources, etc?
MSInet is an Internet Control, you must be connected to the internet in order to use it.
i think i get it now, thanks!
