Ramil,

Do you mean that the standard \\server\volume syntax is giving you problems? If so, I've run into similar things trying to map drives on a Novell system when trying to map drives using both VFP and the Windows Script Host. If the server is not part of the same branch of the tree (I'm not sure exactly about the terminology here, BTW), it wouldn't map. An example, using our net as an example would be using \\SNnn\MAIN where "nn" is the plant number. In this case, it would map to any of the five servers with our particular group, but woudn't work outside of it.

The workaround was to first map a drive using the Windows Explorer, then retrieving the name using either the WSH or using the WNetGetConnection() API call and using that where necessary.
