Can I open a VPN connection via VBA?

[Guest]

I'd like to open a vpn connection I've already created by clicking a command
button within my Access 2003 database. I've tried opening a hyperlink to a
desktop shortcut, but that gives me an error. Any other ideas?

The easiest way is to make the VPN connection map a drive

Then link to your data (presumably back-end) via normal techniques.

Be warned that, unless the connection is very fast, this could be painful.

An alternative is to use terminal Services, Citrix, etc. over the VPN
