how to access a drive without a letter?


I am writing code that accesses an MP3 player plugged to a USB port. The
MP3 player is not showing up as a drive letter. With explorer, I see the
drive, with it's name, but no drive letter is assigned. How do I access
such a drive? Thank you very much.

Using whatever software the vendor provided. If there is a programming
interface, good. It sounds like an explorer namespace extension is being
used, which makes direct file access impossible. Does the drive appear in
Computer Management Disk Administrator?
The drive does not appear in Computer Management Disk Administrator. And
I did not have to install any software, XP recognized the device without any
software.
