I would like to know how to assign a drive letter to a
local folder. I believe in previous versions of windows
you could use the 'Use' command but not sure how to do it
in Windows 2000

Thanks

You should be able to use the "subst" command from a command prompt to
assign a drive letter to a local folder.

For example,

subst t: c:\temp

would make t:\ map to c:\temp.

Use

subst t: /d

to delete the mapping.

Use

subst

to list the current mappings.

Another way to do this is to use "net use" as in

net use t: \\localhost\c$\temp

to map t: to c:\temp. Perhaps that's what you were thinking of?
