Is there any way to list the shares on a server?

[minnellac]

In Windows XP, I'm processing data stored on separate hard drives connected to a computer set up as a server. Each drive is listed individually under the server, i.e., \\server\drive1, \\server\drive2, .... Is there any easy way to get a list of these drives? The list directory function fails on \\server, and apparently stripping a \\server\share UNC path doesn't change the path. Also, I'm not sure if this is related, but since I started playing with this, LabVIEW has crashed 3 times.

So, LabVIEW just crashed again. This is the error:

Fatal Internal Error : "fpsane.cpp", line 432

I don't know how this is connected to anything, but the error occurred when I closed a cmd window where the working directory was \\server\drive1.

I think I will restart now. 😞

Hi,

Inside your VI, you can use the following functions of Windows API. You must create the NETRESOURCE Buffer before call the "mpr.dll"

WNetOpenEnum

WNetEnumResource

WNetCloseEnum
