Default Law Tracks Example db

The function I’m having trouble with checks the backend during the on load
event of my Splash form. It tries to link up with a table in the backend. If
it cannot connect, then it asks the user to navigate to the backend, select
it, and then it tries to reconnect. This has never worked for me the way I’m
sure it was intended to work.

Rather than trying to get the Law Tracks Reconnect/AttachAgain examples to
work, maybe someone has another way to check for the ability to connect to
the backend during the login process and if the backend is not available
display an error?

I’m trying to prevent the application from crashing if the network is
unavailable and the user cannot gain access to the backend.


Please clarify what you hope to accomplish. What database will the user
reconnect to when the network is unavailable?
