Category :Windows API
Platform :All
Product :All 32 bit
Question:
How can my application tell if the machine is connected to a
network under Windows 95?
Answer:
You can call the Windows API function GetSystemMetrics() and pass
the SM_NETWORK flag.
Example:
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
if GetSystemMetrics(SM_NETWORK) AND $01 = $01 then
ShowMessage('Machine is attached to network') else
ShowMessage('Machine is not attached to network');
end;
