>I need to find a communication app that is installed on a Win2000 box somewhere on a network. We install it in folder "suggested" by a 3rd party provider. I'd like to know if the app is running, although that isn't required. I do need to monitor a specific sub-folder and remove files as they are placed there. I've mapped a drive on my box to a drive designator and everything works, but I rather use something like "\\commserver\appsname\export\" instead.

Mike, you might consider using the functionality in my NETRESOURCE class library to enumerate the shares on the LAN, and then for each appropriately-named share, examine it for the file you're looking for. NETRESOURCE is available for download in the Files section, and also requires CLSHEAP.
