Determine if wirleess connection

[Guest]

Can anyone tell me of a way to determine if someone is connected to a network
wirelessly. Idea - I want to kick someone out of an Access Database if they
are using a wireless connection because it highly increases the chances of
that database becoming corrupt.

Any ideas or suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

I think I've come across this however I don't recall any specifics.
You could try the various VB sections at www.mvps.org. Look under
the networking section.

Or search in groups.google.com using the advanced search and
restricting the groups to *gb* along with appropriate keywords.

One problem is the situation where a laptop has both a wired and
wireless connection. How do you determine which connection is active
vs. not active. There are times on my own laptop when I hook it up
to my network at home that Win XP will switch from the wireless
networking to the wired network. But other times not.

Thanks for the ideas. I'll see what I can find.

The problem I've run into is that Wireless connections here at my work are
not stable and they end up corrupting Access database. We sometimes have the
some problems with VPN users.
