Ed,

>>One low-tech quick fix might be to use the SUBST command in your autoexec.bat on startup to set drive C: = E: . That drive will then be accessible using C: or E: and you can transparently switch between the two computers. (If E is not available on the "C" computer, use SUBST to map a new letter to both computers, like maybe "P" for project!)

>ARGGGGH! Please don't do that - remapping the C: drive would be a very bad move if SUBST let youdo it. Assigning E: = C: would make sense, but think of all the things you break into teensie little messy pieces the other way...

Well, what I meant was "whatever the SUBST syntax is" to make the existing drive C: also addressable as drive E:. I know you can do *that*, cuz I've done it before and it ain't broke nothing yet.
