mapped drives cause problems - use URIs

Hi all!

I'm trying to run a VFP9 app on a small peer network of Win7 (64bit) machines. As a test I installed VFP on one of the machines and some tables on another. I shared the drive with the tables and mapped it to the letter T: on the VFP machine. I can see the drive (T:) and its contents from Windows explorer but when I issue "Use t:\tst.dbf" in the command window I get "File 'T:\tst.dbf does not exist'". If I issue 'SET DEFAULT TO T:\" I get "Invalid path or file name".

Has anyone got any idea why this is happening and what I need to do to fix it?

TIA,

Bill
