>Absolutely - you can use the WSH Wscript.Network object to add and remove network port assignments, the WinAPI has WNetAddConnection3() or WNetUseConnection() and WNetCancelConnection2() for the same thing, and you can always use the command line NET USE commands via RUN.

That Sounds promising.. direction for me to take to API calls. I would like to use WSH, but it haas been disabled on all machines at customer site... big fear about virii etc.

I will investigate this further and let you knwo what works.
Thanks again to all for their help,

Mike
