>I'm working on a process to assign a drive letter to a network share. Part of the interface is a textbox for the user to key in the "correct name". I want to check the entry to be certain that it is accurate. It looks like NetShareGetInfo would allow me to pass in text like "\\mike-win2k\" and give me a success code IF the text is correct AND the computer is turned on. What I'm struggling with is converting the VB example that I have into VFP syntax.

If you've WSH, than you can try to map drive to the network share and capture error if it's incorrect.
oNet = CREATEOBJECT("WScript.Network")
On Error < Capture mapping error >
oNet.MapNetworkDrive("Z:", "\\Server\Share")
* Restore default error handler
