Hi
I've some problem with my script , i need to change the name mapped
drive in Win 2000 and Win 98, and I don't know how to do it.
I try in script use :

strDrive ="Q:"
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
objShell.NameSpace(strDrive).Self.Name = "Home"

but it only work's in Win Xp. In Win 98 show error about no exists
object NameSpace, something like this.

my guess is that the object NameSpace is not available in non NT-based
Operatingsystems

For the Windows 2000 computers use this syntax:
objShell.NameSpace(strDrive & "\").Self.Name = "Home"
