You would need to have one app that will be running in the background (no visible interface, should be started when OS id loaded), which will check for internet connection from time to time). When it detects that connection is established, it should run your 2nd app.

To check if there is an internet connection (code by Francesco Balena):

Private Declare Function InternetGetConnectedState Lib "wininet.dll" (ByRef _     lpSFlags As Long, ByVal dwReserved As Long) As Long Const INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM = 1 Const INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN = 2 Const INTERNET_CONNECTION_PROXY = 4 Const INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM_BUSY = 8 ' return True if there is an active Internect connection ' ' optionally returns the connection mode through ' its argument (see INTERNET_CONNECTION_* constants) '   1=modem, 2=Lan, 4=proxy '   8=modem busy with a non-internet connection Function IsConnectedToInternet(Optional connectMode As Integer) As Boolean     Dim flags As Long     ' this ASPI function does it all     IsConnectedToInternet = InternetGetConnectedState(flags, 0)     ' return the flag through the optional argument     connectMode = flags End Function

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
If IsConnectedToInternet(INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM) = True Then

            List1.AddItem "Internet connection State (modem)  = Connected" & vbCrLf
    Else
            List1.AddItem "Internet connection State (modem)  = Not Connected" & vbCrLf
    End If
End Sub

'Now IsConnectedToInternet(INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM) function return >> true.  if local area connection connected.
'How to get Internet connection of modem(ppp adapter) connected  only. But Local area connection and (ppp adapter(modem)) can Active at the same time

I hope for help again.

If you look athis function and how it woks, you will that the parrameter you pass to IsConnectedToInternet is NOT used in InternetGetConnectedState API. When InternetGetConnectedState API executes it retunrs the value in flags parameter, and in nect line it sets flags value to a parameter you have passed to the function .This is the value you need to examine, not the returned value of function.

dim RetVal As Integer      IsConnectedToInternet RetVal     If (RetVal And INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM) = INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM Then Debug.Print "Modem connection."     If (RetVal And INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN) = INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN Then Debug.Print "connected through LAN."

etc, etc
