I havent used the API stuff much yet in delphi so I was hoping if
somebody here can tell me how I can find out if somebody is connected
to the Internet/BBS or anything else via the modem.

Looked at the help but looking for a practical example in Delphi 2.

I want them to be able to select from COM1.. COM4 (autodetect possible
?) and I want the program to find out if they are connected or not to
some sort of service.

I think the GetCommXXX stuff only work with win95/NT etc, is there
something like this in win3.11 API ?
