On a similar issue, I have been trying to develop a function that will only map a drive if it's not already mapped, but will also accept an option "force-map" flag to remap if required. The domain is NT4 and all clients are either W2K or XP. The problem is that if the "force-map" is set and the drive is already mapped. The /DELETE option leaves the drive in a strange state. NET USE at the command windows shows "Unavailable" or "Disconnected" but that prevents the following USE from working.

code:
Function MapDrive($letter, $unc, Optional $force)
	Dim $fso, $drivemap, $sharename
	$fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
	If $fso
		$drivemap = $fso.GetDrive("$letter")
		If $drivemap
			$sharename = $drivemap.ShareName
			? "...Already mapped: "+$letter+" to "+$sharename
			If $force = 1
				? "...Forced mapping: "+$letter+" to "+$unc
				USE "$letter" /DELETE
				Sleep 1
				USE "$letter" "$unc" /PERSISTENT
				$drivemap = $fso.GetDrive("$letter")
				If $drivemap
					$MapDrive = 1
				Else
					$MapDrive = 0
				EndIf
			Else
				$drivemap = $fso.GetDrive("$letter")
				? "...Already mapped: "+$letter+" to "+$drivemap.ShareName
				$MapDrive = 1
			EndIf
		Else
			? "...Mapping drive: "+$letter+" to "+$unc
			USE "$letter" "$unc" /PERSISTENT
			Sleep 0.5
			$drivemap = $fso.GetDrive("$letter")
			If $drivemap
				$MapDrive = 1
			Else
				$MapDrive = 0
			EndIf
		EndIf
	EndIf
	$drivemap = 0
	$fso = 0
EndFunction

$=MapDrive("U:", "\\vbcsr0001\e$\WebSites", 1)
$=MapDrive("V:", "\\vb-svr-04\C$")
$=MapDrive("X:", "\\vabsr0004\c$")
Anything in this code (above) that I've hosed up somewhere? If I'm reinventing the wheel, please point me to a better solution if possible? THanks!
