Re: Mapping drives

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

If you're using vbscript to map the drives, first test to see if it's
already mapped to the correct share, if it is, continue. If it's not, remove
the mapping and remap. Use this code for each drive you need to map.

Example:
Dim oNet, oDrives
Set oNet = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
Set oDrives = oNet.EnumNetworkDrives
For i = 0 to oDrives.Count - 1 Step 2
If oDrives.Item(i) = "T:" Then
If oDrives.Item(i+1) = "\\sbsComputer\ShareName" Then
Continue with your script here...all is well
Else
oNet.RemoveNetworkDrive "T:"
oNet.MapNetworkDrive "T:","\\sbsComputer\CorrectShareName"
Continue with your script...the mapping has been corrected
End If
End If
Next
oNet.MapNetworkDrive "T:","\\sbsComputer\CorrectShareName"
Continue with your script, It wasn't mapped, but now it is.
