[RESOLVED] Get UNC from network mapped drive letter

[techgnome]

Well, okay. How so how do I 'wake up' the connection? Doing this on the L: drive returns FALSE:

Dim letterOnly As String = ConnStr.Substring(0, 2)
        Dim driveExists As Boolean = Directory.Exists(letterOnly & ":") 'Tried both L: and L:\, both show FALSE even though my local machine is mapped to the L drive!

Haven't tried it, but from what I remember you have to use it... not just check to see if it exists, but use it... like get the directory listing or something. And it doesn't always wake up on the first attempt either, that it might take 2-3 attempts.
