How to get drive information for a mapped network drive?

[Sventtke]

Hi!

I'm using a mapped network drive. How I can get/set information about Servername and drivename?

For example:

A network drive \\servername\folder\subfolder\ is mapped at drive letter Y: and so I can find it in explorer (and with DIAdem command FolderExist) under "Y:\" and a folder existing there under "Y:\foldername\". How can I extract the string \\servername\folder\subfolder\ ?

Regards

Hi Sven,

the following code-snippet hopefully does what you want 😉

Dim fso, drive
set fso = Createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject" )
set drive = fso.Drives
msgbox drive( "Y" ).ShareName

By the way, the drive-object has much more properties, but the ShareName exactly returns the serverpath

kind regards

rowo
