I'm sure there's a way in VB, but it should also work with a DOS batch file.<br />
<br />
Copy what's below into a text file and rename with a .bat file extension.<br />
<br />
@echo off<br />
net use x: \\[servername]\%username%<br />
<br />
This is assuming you have a folder named the same as the username that is shared on the file server.<br />
<br />
good luck!

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
