Connecting to network drive and creating system folder

[ycsim]

How can i create a new "drive" in My Computer that connects to another system, like the XDrive application or IDrive desktop app...????

my explanation is not very clear, but it is something like a drive on your system where you can access it and this drive maybe an ftp server or any server....

also, i want to know how to create a system folder in my computer....

Ok as l understand it, you want to map a drive on another machine either client or server.......

Go to

Windows Explorer -> Tools -> Map Network Drive

and following the prompts.

If you have done it correctly, you should see a new drive letter in "My Computer" with access to the network drive.

Of course you must have access to the other PC's drive for it to work. On that machine My Computer -> Right click on Drive - > Look in sharing to see access rights.

SMS affects this for servers...if using SMS you will have a sysop no doubt...just FYI

Hope it helps

i wanna do it in VB

For all network drives...using the following path style

\\networkdrive\dir\dir\filename

If you do not know the network drive name etc you have a problem. It would appear that the vb controls can only see drives on the current PC and Mapped drives. Therefore you would have to once again map the network drives.

Painful but true............ask Serge or some one if there is an API call that would extract possible network paths.
