SP2 Dial-Up

Man, I feel bad for you :)

Anyway, is their an icon for the connection quality?

if so use

Pixelsearch(1060,994,1279,1023, "*Your icon's Color*")

If not, tell how you know whenther or not it exists manually

and try to find a way to automate that manual work

Paulie,

I'm creating a script that installs a new Dial-Up connection...yes, I know, "Dial-Up" Yuck...for my orgainization (they want no end-user interaction during the install). But I need to make sure the current Dial-Up connection is deleted first, so I don't get the following error message: "Connection with specified name already exists. please provide a unique connection name".

I know it exists because it is standard on every image which is located under the "Network Connections" icon...see screen shot below.

YES, I know a different name would do the trick, but I also want to make sure the "connection" is deleted in case the end-user runs the script more than once.

Any help would be greatly appriciated! :)

Ok, try to do somting with

WinGetText("Network Connections", "Dial Up")

That should help you find if it exists

But to delete it, can you just delete it right there?(Im not sure i never mess with my connection, its nstable as it is)

I dunno, bt im outta cmputer time, its work time so i'll get back to you on this

Run this one line of code:
Run("RASPHONE /?")
and notice the "-r" option.

You might also consider using "RASPHONE -a" to start the Wizard that you were using in your other thread.

Here is a site that talks a bit about RASDIAL and RASPHONE:
