 I'm writing a small program that will send files to another computer
unattended. What I would like it to do is dial up another computer
at a predetermined time, and after handshaking, send the files.

 However, I would like to know how to detect a cut off connection, such
as if the host computer hangs up or line noise cuts off the carrier.
I could have some sort of protocol that would determine if the modem was
still on carrier, but I would idealy like to know the state of the
modem at any point of time.

                                                     Thanks,

                                                       Derrick
