I suppose if the connection is not valid in LOAD method (SQLEXEC returns .F.) the code will have to call a routine to create a new connection. I wish I could "force" this condition (that is force Communication link failure) on my computer to see how the program will react.

Thank you for the suggestion.
The SQL Server is local so I will stop the service. But I wonder what actually happens on the customer SQL Server; as far as I know, nobody stops the server. And I doubt that they unplug the LAN card. Yet, I get these messages "Communication link failure."
