It is now possible to dial a remote connection and manage the device’s phone book from your application using the Sapphire RAS Utility. This will allow you to build advanced applications to allow your mobile application stay current with your business information. Whether you use it to dial in from remote locations to download the latest price lists or upload the daily orders, the Sapphire RAS Utility will be ideal for your application.
Fully compatible with eVB, VB.NET, C# and Satellite Forms, you can link to our DLL to off load the complex routines allowing you to focus on the rapid development of your application.
You can download the latest demo version to see a fully working demo which you can reuse within your application as you see fit. The demo versions are fully functional and simply contain a popup message from time to time. These are ideal if you are selling your application to the client where you can be confident the application will work in practice and not just theory.

Sample Code
Implementation couldn’t be easier, simply declare the DLL function as a function within your application and call it as though you wrote it yourself. Here’s a simple demo on how to retrieve the current connection, dial, hang-up and get the status of the connection within VB.NET.
' Global Connection Handle, Passed Back to Disconnection and Status
Public lConnection As Integer
Public Function RASDialOnly() As Integer
' Set sConnectionEntry equal to your dial-up connection name
' Set SapphireRASLicence with your Licence Number unless Demo DLL
RASDialOnly = sRASDialOnly(sConnectionEntry, sUsername,
sPassword, sDomain, lConnection, SapphireRASLicence)
End Function
Public Function RASHangUp() As Integer
RASHangUp = sRASHangUp(lConnection)
End Function
Public Function RASStatus() As Integer
RASStatus = sRASStatus(lConnection)
End Function
Public Function RASCurrentConn() As String
Dim sConnName As String = Space(40)
sRASCurrentConn(lConnection, sConnName)
RASCurrentConn = StripString(sConnName)
End Function
