LIST CONNECTIONS Command
Continuously displays information about the named connections in the current database.
LIST CONNECTIONS [TO PRINTER [PROMPT] | TO FILE FileName [ADDITIVE]] [NOCONSOLE]
Parameters
- TO PRINTER [PROMPT]
-
Directs output from LIST CONNECTIONS to a printer.
In Visual FoxPro, you can include the optional PROMPT clause to display a Print dialog box before printing starts. Place PROMPT immediately after TO PRINTER.
- TO FILE FileName
-
Directs output from LIST CONNECTIONS to the file specified with FileName. If the file already exists and SET SAFETY is ON, Visual FoxPro displays a prompt asking if you want to overwrite the file.
- ADDITIVE
-
Appends to the end of the named file. If you omit ADDITIVE, then the file is overwritten with the value of the expression.
- NOCONSOLE
-
Suppresses output to the main Visual FoxPro window or to the active user-defined window.
The following example assumes an ODBC data source called MyFoxSQLNT is available. The testdata database is opened, and a connection named Myconn is created. LIST CONNECTIONS is used to list the named connections in the database.
CLOSE DATABASES OPEN DATABASE (HOME(2) + 'data\testdata') CREATE CONNECTION Myconn DATASOURCE "MyFoxSQLNT" USERID "<userid>" PASSWORD "<password>" CLEAR LIST CONNECTIONS && Lists named connections in the database
