When I go into "Map Network Drive" on my NT, it comes up with drive H:. Under
path it lists
\\8100NTSERVER\8100 Files
I have tried
a=findfile('\\8100NTSERVER\8100 Files')
This does not work.
Anybody have any suggestions?
thanks-Peter Brooker

I tried it and it did not seem to work. No string value was returned.
