Hi,

does somebody know how to get mapped network drives without using " net use" ?
I have a problem with net use because the output is different on each computer.

Bye, Fabian

I believe vdsinet.dll has the ability to map network drives from within VDS.

Have you downloaded the latest (updated?) version?

If you make sure that you have version 2.8, it should have no problems working on
VDS 5.

Hi Tommy,

are you sure version 2.8 should work ? I was trying socket connections with vdsinet today and I get error 27 for each command.

Bye, Fabian

The socket functions seem only to crash on WinXP. On Win2000 I got it running...

if I run it as compiled exe on winxp it works fine too. but in the ide it crashes with error 27

Hello Fabian,

You probably have older copies of VDSINET.DLL floating around on the XP machine. Search
for all instances of VDSINET.DLL on the system, especially in the search path and rename
them to something like VDSINET.BAK and then try again. On my XP Professional machine
it works fine, even in the IDE.
