Hello,

I have wrote a dll that connects to oracle. Everything is fine, unless for some reason oracle is not available (i.e cannot get to the network or oracle is just down) in this case the calling program hands waiting for the dll to return. The dll in turn is waiting for
the function call return. I waited 15 minutes for the call to return, then I decided that it just was not going to return. How can i set a timeout on this. I am working in a manufacturing enviroment and that is just not acceptable. I am using pro*c on a nt 4.0 in Visual C++ 6.0.

thanks in advance...
