Hi all,

How would I, Using IBO check if the connection is valid before I post my
records to the database.

by this I want to shutdown the database in order to do a backup and restore
but I have 15-20 users live on this database. I cannot get them to logout,
so I figured I would code a check to make sure they are connected, just
before the post, if not connected try again until they are connected.
How would I do this?
I,m using delphi and IBO for the client, linux and IB SS for the server.

Can someone give me a direction on how to accomplish this?

Thanks
Daniel
