That location is not listed under "computer." All the other drives and connections are. I can still go to windows explorer and open it right away, though.

I need to be able to programmatically set the path location but haven't figured out how to reference it. The closest I got was to copy a dbf out to the directory, open it, then spit out the location. Unfortunately, what it did was move the dbf to a temp location in the ie directory.
