Jon 858 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 I got a DriveMap/UnMap function working - nice and easy to implement an people are always asking for it: DriveMap( "drive", "remote folder" [, "user" [, "password"]] ) Should I add a "persistant" parameter or create a "DriveMapPersistant" AutoitSetOption instead (might be easier)?

Chris_1013 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 Wow, I've been searching for a way to implement this (through calls to Rundll or something) without luck, and you just go and do it! I'd say, add it as a parameter on the function would be my personal preference, since you may want it on or off for different scenarios. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would prefer to have the Persistant as a parameter on the command ... , more or less like the Net Use command...

Chris_1013 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2004 I don't think there is any difference, it'd just be nice to have it as a built in function in AU, rather than having to shell out to DOS and trap the error to check it worked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris_1013 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2004 Sounds good, being without Broadband is always a bitch :-)Couple of questions... At the top of the post you mention UnMap, will there be a seperate function to do this?Also, I don't quite understand this:If you pass a blank string for this parameter a connection is made but not mapped to a specific drive.

At the top of the post you mention UnMap, will there be a seperate function to do this?Also, I don't quite understand this:You can make a connection that has no drive letter. Like doing "net use \\server\share". It can be useful in certain cirmcumstances. There is a DriveMapDel as well. And possibly a DriveMapGet later on.
