Hi,

I am writing an windows form application in C# for mapping the network drive.
The functionality of the application is as follow.
1.Check whether the Hardcoded network drive is already mapped
If mapped Ask users whether it need to be connected or not
else
Ask users whether it need to be Disconnected or not

Can some one help me how to check whether a network drive is connected for the perticular userid or not.

Thanks

Sorry the mentioned link is comparing with the network drive letters, What i need is it should check with paths like '//xyz/abs' ..not with the drive letters like 'A:\'.

Er ... then that's not a "mapped network drive" it's just a path ... which doesn't really have a concept of connecting/disconnecting

I am actually converting a VB script code to C#.. Where it is checking the Shared path already connected or not.. If it is connected it will ask for disconnection else it will ask for connection.Please find the code snippet
Dim intI
Dim objDrives

DriveIsConnected = False
Set objDrives = objNetwork.EnumNetworkDrives
For intI = 0 To objDrives.Count - 1 Step 2
strDriveLetter = objDrives.Item(intI)
strNetworkDrivePath = objDrives.Item(intI + 1)
If strNetworkDrivePath = strPPath Then
DriveIsConnected = True
