RE: [DUG]: Renaming/Relabeling A Shared Drive from Delphi.

[Stacey Verner]

I have tride SetVolumeLabel and I have tried using the Label command, but neither of these work, unless I have to specify the drive identifier (Root path name) differently. I have tried the following in Delphi:       SetVolumeLabel(PChar('G:'), PChar('Bob'));     SetVolumeLabel(PChar('G:\'), PChar('Bob'));       SetVolumeLabel(PChar('\\machinename\C'), PChar('Bob'));     SetVolumeLabel(PChar('\\machinename\C:'), PChar('Bob'));   and for the Label command       Label G: Bob     Label G:\ Bob       Label \\machinename\C Bob     Label \\machinename\C: Bob   Thanks   Stacey -----Original Message----- From: Nello Sestini [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 5 March 2001 12:07 p.m. To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: Re: [DUG]: Renaming/Relabeling A Shared Drive from Delphi. In Windows Explorer you can rename mapped network drives (right click -> rename, double click -> edit label field).   Is it possible to do this from a Delphi App using the windows API?   you can call the SetVolumeLabel API function   function SetVolumeLabel(lpRootPathName: PChar; lpVolumeName: PAnsiChar): BOOL; stdcall; {$EXTERNALSYM SetVolumeLabel}     or you could call WinExec and pass it an appropriate Label command     -ns
