I believe the IsActive property is not entirely accurate and tends more
to reflect the situation when the last command, or whatever, ran. But
hours-of-being-dormant later, testing this property does not prove the
connection is still viable.
What do you do?
The reason I ask is that in VB we try

From my tests, you are right about IsActive - it is the results of the
last connection (I think) and has nothing to do with the current state.
I added a timer function to our VB front end that runs every 60 seconds

The same result can be accomplished by calling a subroutine that does
nothing other than return.
If it does not throw an exception, then the connection is alive.

We regularly call a UV subroutine ASKOK which returns 'OK'. If it
