I've been pondering what the ramifications to sql session disconnects are. I 
have seen in other "professionally developed" applications, like our accounting 
software used here, that if the user gets disconnected for anything longer than 
a few seconds, the software completely bails out through a series of errors 
that I have to abort to get the app to quit. Not very graceful. I want to make 
my software more robust. 

So I am wondering what happens when there is a transaction in effect, and there 
is an unexpected disconnect. Will reconnecting restore the transaction state or 
is it flushed after the sql timeout? If I can reconnect and the transaction is 
still in effect, well and good, but if I proceed as though the transaction is 
still in effect and it is not, bad things could conceivably happen. 

Is completely bailing out the best approach after all?
