Disconnecting network drive from command line

I am running NT 4.0, I have a batch file that
connects my network drives.  I want to be able to disconnect them with another batch.

I am trying to use  net use
here is what I am typing but I am getting an error:

net use V: \\mymachine\mydir /delete

This will not work keep getting an error, here is the error:
"A command was used with conflicting switches.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3510"

you have this Q twice, delete the other one
strongd,
I believe stevenlewis is correct, however I think you may need to put a colon after the drive letter like:

net use V:  /d

By the way, why are you wanting to do this in the first place?
You may want to add the /yes switch to make your batch file run without pausing for confirmation:

net use v: /delete /yes
