Hello everybody, I will be on here asking questions all the time so sorry about that.
Just a setup, i created this app (using AutoIt) that will let me pick an item in a treeview then map drives based off the path that looks into an xml file.

So after hearing about it from many people, saying i should use a real language to make this little utility I am trying to learn vb. I setup the tree view and setup a button that will map the drive later. As of now the button just returns a messagebox showing the full path of the item selected.

What is the best way to go about this from here? Before i took the path something like "folder1\subfolder\anotherfolder" and I would split the string into an array. Then based on each array node i could find the paths from the XML. But im hearing now i should us another method to do this since VB has so many more options. And i cant even split the string into an array... im totally lost.

Help please! (ive been looking on the help files and stuff but its just so much info i have no idea where to start.)
