Hi Gustav<br />
<br />
I was able to use the trick above where I have a dummy form and I refresh it every 15 minutes. &nbsp;It worked nicely.

Hello All<br />
<br />
I have a database where the front end is on everyone's computers and the backend is up on Azure. &nbsp;When someone leaves the front end on (for example if they go to lunch) when they come back it is as if the backend disconnected. &nbsp;They have to restart the frontend in order to reconnect.<br />
<br />
Is there something in Azure where I can tell it to not disconnect if there is no activity? &nbsp;Or is there something I can add to the frontend in Access that continually pings the backend so that it thinks someone is there?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Cloud computing, also known as on-demand computing, is a kind of Internet-based computing where shared resources and information are provided to computers and other devices. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources.
