Const char *router, const char *server, long flags);

Parameters

id	SAP System ID that identifies the SAP System. The list of SAP Systems is retrieved from the file SAPMSG.INI.
ms	Hostname of the message server. The message server routes the service to various application servers. This message server will provide a list of the currently available application servers that are running on the selected system. Each SAP System provides one message server. This information is stored in the file SAPMSG.INI.
router	Destination router used to connect to the message server as well as to the listed application servers. The list of available SAP routers is retrieved from the file SAPROUTE.INI.
server	The IP address of the application server to connect to. If you want to connect to an application server from a list of currently available servers in a system, you can obtain this list of servers by using the It_ServerLookup function. It_ServerLookup returns the IP addresses of the available servers.
flags	Flags to control the connection operation. Flags also allow you to specify how the coordinates of controls on the screen are expressed (affects all events associated with the connection). The same flags are used in all of the connection functions.

Return Value
