Map Network Drive Function

[=?Utf-8?B?Z3JlYXRiYXJyaWVyODY=?=]

Hi,

Is there an API call for mapping a network drive? i think i am using the
right expression but i am referring to something in the same realm as
InitiateSystemShutdown. That's an API call right?

There's WNetAddConnection2 [1]

greatbarrier86,

Well, it's in the same realm in the sense that it is an API function
from the Windows API, but you definitely don't want to call that if you want
to map a network drive =)

If you want to map a network share to a drive, then you can use the
WNetAddConnection2 or WNetAddConnection3 functions through the P/Invoke
layer.
