Communication link failure...

Hello,
We are the authors of an application written in PowerBuilder (type
Client-Server, database MSSQLServer2000).
After some time (1 hour) of client inactivity happens disconnect from server
and aplication reports error 'Communication link failure ...'

Please, would you help me, if exists some way how to set up an interval of
the connectivity between Client and Server. I wasnt able to find it out in
any help or manual.

Thank you very much in advance!

You should add code to your application to capture the login dialogue
and log back on to the server in the event the server has dropped the
session and the SAME client session wishes to communicate with the server.

I suggest this because the timeout value used by the server could change
from release to release or be changed by the network/system administrators
if resource usage gets too high.
