    Re: Can't access a mapped drive

    Thanks for your reply. As I said, I think I've solved the problem by simply running VB as an Administrator. Why that should be necessary I don't know (but there are many things about Windows I don't understand).

    Did you map the drive letter as administrator? If so the mapping only exists for the administrator account, if you are running the app as your own user then map the drive as yourself.
