I've looked at several examples of how to detect if there is an internet connection present and how to connect via dial-up. But they all have their problems...what i need is to detect if a connection exists (preferable not using winsock) and if there is no connection then bring up the connect dialog...The examples that i've seen ask for the connection name, but i need to do this with out asking the connection name...just bring up the "connect to" dialog box.

Thanx,
