>Why do you use drive mapping at all? What's wrong with //Server/Share/Path ? Mapped drives are just like pretending D: is an ODD.

I find drive mapping easier to use if I am aready in directory structure building data sets. These I map to a special drive to analyze with baked program. Yes, running from source+changing path is not much more effort, or adding path via command line or getting it on each run via gui -
but that way I have a "current hot zone" and don't have to write down the latest path I was working on...


YMMV
