How to initiate dial up sequence

I need some VB .Net code that will automatically cause the user's machine to
begin the dial up process to connect to the internet if no connection is
found active.

Herfried,

I put the Public Class InternetDialer class below my Public Class Form1 end
class...

I located a good place in my code to call a dial up function but it is not
clear to me what line of code to insert to wake up the InternetDialer to do
it's thing.

It looks like what I need but I am not experienced enough to know how to
impliment with out an example or a suggested line of code to fire it up.

Thanks!

Bob

Simply add the file to an empty new code file and use the code below to
create the internet connection:

InternetDialer.Dialup(InternetDialer.AutoDialOptions.ForceOnline)
