I'm not sure why that answer was accepted in the thread you linked to. &nbsp;The code doesn't compile. &nbsp;The GetWirlessName function is missing. &nbsp;I tried fixing the spelling error but that didn't fix the issue.

I forgot to warn you that running Access on a wireless network is dangerous. &nbsp;Access cannot gracefully recover from network interruptions and they happen frequently on a wireless network. &nbsp;If they happen at a &quot;bad&quot; time, your BE will be corrupted.

<div>
Thanks for the warning but Access is not running on a wireless network. We have two computers running Access each running locally which run a home grown replication routine several times daily to keep the data in sync. &nbsp;I wanted to know the name of the wireless network to allow activation of routines I only want to run at our office location, not at home.

<div>
I didn't test the code so I don't know if it returns all available networks or just the network you are connected to. &nbsp;If it is just the network you are connected to, then you are running on a wireless network and linking to a Jet/ACE BE over wireless is extremely dangerous.
</div>


<div>
Nope, as I said, i am not linking to a BE over the network. There are separate BEs local on each computer and I created a replication routine outside of Access that runs several times a day to keep the two BEs in sync. The routine I created is designed to handle network dropouts and I tested it extensively. It has operated flawlessly for about 15 years even if I turn off the computers in the middle of the run.

<div>
That's fine. &nbsp;Since you were asking about wireless networks and Access in the same question, I was just trying to clarify for future readers that running an Access app on a wireless network is dangerous.

I found the answer on anther service.

Get active wireless network name in MS Access VBA

Microsoft Access is a rapid application development (RAD) relational database tool. Access can be used for both desktop and web-based applications, and uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as its coding language.

Microsoft Access

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.
