Well, I never used this function and I don't have any other doc but Win32API Help file. It seems that you're using it correctly. So, if you're sure that your "\\myserver\myshare" exists, it might be a problem with the password you're sending (the second parameter). You can send a real user password and see what happens.

If you're on a Novell netware (the same for other netwares also, probably), the user must have access to the desired path you're passing as 1st parameter. You must also know that WNetAddConnection creates persistent connection, e.g. Windows will save it and it will recreate it automatically every time you boot you're system. Probably you'll have an error if you try to recreate an existing connection.
