>Does anyone know how to start the dialup connection for connecting to the internet, like how IE does it every time you load IE. I have writen a form that will do some FTP transfering from our ftp site to there local machine but I want to be able to create the internet connection if they aren't already connected. Any suggestions?

Windows should take care of this for you. As soon as you initiate an operation that needs connectivity, WinInet will initiate a DUN/RAS session. Have you tried it?
