Get NetWork Drives and Shared Folders Using API calls.

I have tried to use the IWshRuntimeLibrary and
ManagementObjectSearcher("SELECT * FROM Win32_LogicalDisk") to get all
Logical Drives, Mapped Network Drives, Shared Folders and Shared Drives with
limited Success because there is a bug apparently in using IWshRuntimeLibrary.

There must be some API calls to get this information since Windows Explorer
seems to be able to get. Can anyone tell me what API's are used. I know
GetLogicalDrivesA can be used to get the Logical drives including mapped
drives but it doesn't get the network shared folders nor network shared
Drives.
