>I have the following function in my startup program (I pulled it off the thread awile ago) that is supposed to estabish a network connection if the user isn't already connected. It works fine in test (when I manually disconnect from the drive and run the startup.prg). However, once I compile the EXE and run it (after disconnecting from the drive) I get a FILE NOT FOUND error. The first line of code in the launch program is :

I've used this function quite a bit in the past. Off the top of my head, my declaration and execution of the call look like this.

DECLARE INTEGER WNetAddConnection IN Win32API;
  STRING @lpszRemoteName, STRING @lpszPassword, STRING @lpszLocalName
lnresult = WNetAddConnection(@cResource, 0, @cDriveLetter)

IOW, the strings should be passed by reference. To pass a null pointer for the password, use 0 rather than an empty string.
