Read the code, and you'll find all the detail there - the cType value should be set to 'DISK' if you want just disk resources - just call the public SetType method with a value of 'DISK'; the default if not set is 'ANY' (disk and printer resources), and the alternatives are DISK or PRINTER.

If you're just modifying GetAllShare to do your hunting for you, just change the WNetOpenEnum so that dwType is 1 (disk). Changing all occurances of the line:

=WNetOpenEnum(2,0,3,0,@hEnum)

to

=WNetOpenEnum(2,1,3,0,@hEnum)

limits you to disk resources (the second parameter is the dwType argument.) The API call is at declared at the top of the code for GetAllShare. The code is pretty heavily commented. RTFC!

I just went and ran GetAllShare about a dozen times under VFP6 from the command window, and no duplication occurs. Realize that it's digging down layers; if you have a machine with 20 distinct shares, it'll appear at least 21 times - the container under the provider, plus each share instance. If all you wanted were the machines, you'd dig down to the first container sibling layer under each provider. I have a network here with 3 machines as a part of a domain called EDHOME; GetAllShare digs down as follows

  Microsoft Network
    EDHOME (my domain - CONTAINER)
     \\ED3  (a Win2K workstation)
      \\ED3\DVD      - share of the DVD drive
      \\ED3\EPSON600 - and my old Epson Stylus
      \\ED3\C 
     \\NTSERVER4      - the NT 4.0 Server box
      \\NTSERVER4\NETLOGON
      \\NTSERVER4\E
      \\NTSERVER4\A
      \\NTSERVER4\c_drive
      \\NTSERVER4\Encarta99
      \\NTSERVER4\d_drive
      \\NTSERVER4\drive_f
      \\NTSERVER4\MSDNDIST
     \\EDRAUH        - a Win98SE box
      \\EDRAUH\E_98
      \\EDRAUH\C
      \\EDRAUH\MSDOWNLOAD.TMP
      \\EDRAUH\HPLJ 
      \\EDRAUH\CDRBURN
      \\EDRAUH\JAZ

22 distinct containers or connectable resources on 3 machines, no laptop hooked up, and the WinNT 4 workstation in pieces at the moment. It takes about 5 or 6 seconds to hunt down all the pieces, and this is a small 100mbps net...

You'd just be intersted in the three top-level containers beneath the provider, with no need to recursively search. If you don't want the behavior in the demo code, change it to do what you want (or if you're too lazy and willing to pay, I'll be happy to give you a quote on what it'll cost.)

IOW, stop being so damned lazy and read the code to see what the stuff does.
