>>1) Other than the set printer to name on Windows NT, does VFP handle or process the non drive letter mapped volumes with the Universal Naming Code: \\servername\ResourceNameLikeVolumeOrPrinter
>>2) If VFP has other uses for the UNC than set printer to name on Windows NT, what are they and how do we use them?

>VFP3 had a problem with UNC in SET DEFAULT and CD commands (VFP 5 and later don't have the problem) but other than that you can use UNC names where you would use a file name in a command.
The main problem in VFP3 with Universal Naming Conventions was that the \\servername was limited to 8 characters. If the name was eight characters or less, it worked fine.
