Tracy,
Not sure if you're still having trouble with this, but I wrote a VFP
chunk of code that uses Windows Scripting when the appropriate error is
triggered. The code (with WScript) checks for the "missing" drive map,
removes it if it is known to exists (because it will be dead) and then
reconnects the link. It has helped a lot.
Here it is in case anyone else can use it.
This is part of my error handling routine.
para tnErrorNo
IF tnErrorNo=1 OR tnErrorNo=1104
* network drive has gone away
oNet = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
* get list of mapped drives
* this will return an object with an array property "item"
* Item is a zero-based associative array of "drive letter" = "map path"
* so loDrives.item(0)= 'Z:'
* loDrives.item(1)= '\\192.168.0.25\c\'
loDrives=oNet.enumnetworkdrives()
IF loDrives.count>0
FOR nnum=0 TO loDrives.count STEP 2
IF lodrives.item(nnum)='S:'
* force removal in case it exists
oNet.RemoveNetworkDrive("S:",.t.)
exit
ENDIF
ENDFOR
ENDIF
RELEASE ALL LIKE loDrives
* reconnect.....the third param is for "persist? y or n"
oNet.MapNetworkDrive("S:", appl.serverpath,.t.)
RELEASE ALL LIKE onet
On Error &lcError
retry
ENDIF
