I think the issue is that I am mapping something that is on the network and you are mappping something that is local to your rig. Windows deals with mapping local stuff differently than it does with stuff out on the network which probably explains why your test succeeds and my situation fails.
I know that one of the most common network API's is designed so that it only reflects the validity of a mapped drive as it was at boot time. Any subsequrnt changes are ignored. That really irritates me but it serves to suggest where the problem(s) may lay! I had just hoped you would have some ready answer and I wouldn't have to re-enter the dark area of Windows network programming. I guess I will see if I can't figure out how to catch a network error from a call to a dll using the DLL plugin... or something. I am still thinking about it. When (if) I come to some satisfory resolution I will be sure to share it. thank, evan Attention: PowerPro's Web site has moved: http://www.ppro.org Yahoo!
