How to change the label of network drive that has been mapped?

I want to do that using a command.I know that the label of network drive is
just a registry value in WinXP,but may be not in Win2000.

Any one can help?

Not certain I understand your use of "label" here. A Volume Label?
The local devicename of the remote resource? Clarification may help.

Try a small vb script:

Set oShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
oShell.NameSpace("H:\").Self.Name = "your_label"

Sorry to re-open this thread.

I have created some virtual drives using SUBST

I have used the same code you have provided above to label the driv
however I get a "Invalid Volume Label." message.

Can this be done on a SUBST volume?

I am using Windows 2000 Server.

Appreciate your replies.

Thank
