Map Drive in VB.NET

[Guest]

Hello
How do I bring up the standard "Map Network Drive" dialog box using VB .NET
I've seen posts that describe how to map a drive (either via API or via the 'net use' command), but I want my program to bring up the system's default "Map Network Drive" dialog box (that the user would see if they clicked "Tools/Map Network Drive" in Explorer)

Thanks in advance for your guidance
Joe.

Private Declare Function WNetConnectionDialog Lib "mpr.dll" (ByVal hwnd As Integer, ByVal dwType
As Integer) As Integer

Public Sub DisplayMapDriveDialog()

Dim ReturnValue As Integer
Const RESOURCETYPE_DISK = &H1

ReturnValue = WNetConnectionDialog(Nothing, RESOURCETYPE_DISK)

End Sub
