Network Attached Storage

1
I have a simple program. I have a Listbox and I simply populate it from a file called 'MyList.Txt' on my C drive. Yes I understand...very basic stuff!

But, since, I have purchased a Lenovo NAS and the file is now on that only.

Could anybody please explain how I get VB6 to find the file? Is there permissions I must set? etc....

In Windows 10 in File Explorer the NAS drive shows as

'WestAust (\\PX2-300D)'

and has (W:) assigned as the drive letter.

I just do not understand what I am doing (or not doing) for VB6 not to find the drive (and hence the file).

The drive is not found when I loop through the drive using FileSystemObject.

Thank you so much to all who respond and help.
