Thanks Craig !!! I've been using VFP/FoxPro since 1991 or so and oddly enough I have never used that function once, go figure. I'll give it a test drive........I am using the VFP toolkit for .Net and it's great.
Thanks again,
Jace

>>The client (a worlwide company) wants to bill their departments by disk space usage. Each department is given a certain amount of GB or TB as a mapped drive or share as their own. Each month I need to poll each "drive" and find out how much disk space is in use, after that I do the financial calcs and print reports/invoices.
>>
>>The kicker here is that the "drives" are all over the world on different types of OS's. In one polling session I need to get the disk space from several hundred servers such as a WINNT 4 in Sweden, a SUN server in Houston, an HP RS6000 in Bahrain, etc.

>>I already have SQL tables with each managed object, it's IP address, etc.

>>Of course the question(s) would be: can I use a .Net Framework class and simply ask for the disk space usage of //SwedenNT40/ShareName or is there some sort of SNMP call or other tie into .Net that I can use.
