subst and IIS on XP

[foldface]

Hi
Does anyone know why subst doesn't work with IIS on XP?
If I do

sub o: d:\myProj and look for o:\myProj then IIS just can't see it?

This is a very useful feature that I would miss if it can't be done anymore

Its subst, not sub.

And it works fine on XP.

And you would not look for o:\myproj, just o:\ as it WOULD be d:\myproj

that was a typo, you can see I said subst above that

ok, little inaccurate message from me

make d:\versions\temp\myproj

subst o: d:\versions\temp

in iis look for o:\myproj

it can see it via the folders but when you click ok it doesn't work

try it
