Hi

I have been trying to replicate the errors I get in my Delphi/ms access app,
when our network does a 'go slow' (sometimes it grinds to a halt just while
showing the desktop) by opening the ms Access table in design mode while the
app is trying to insert/post to that table.

In order to overcome the problem I have experimented with increasing the
commandTimeout as I thought this property controlled how long the app would
try to connect to the database before causing an exception. However, I can
see no difference between the default values and anything up to 3600!!! I
thought this was 'time' measured in seconds, in which case I would have
expected to be able to easily measure the time before the exception was
triggered.

What have I got wrong?

Thanks for any help

Pete
