Rmtshare Output

[Barney]

I'm trying to use the rmtshare utility (output below) and
a for statement to parse out just the share name but am
having troubles because 1. The name is variable and may
or may not include spaces. 2. The resource path may be
D:\ E:\ F:\ but I can't seem to specify these strings as
Delims.

Any ideas?

Hi Jerold

Sincere thanks. This is certainly close to working.
Where do the values 13,32,45 come from? Am I supposed to
replace them with values 'appropriate' for our servers?
i.e., We have shares whose names exceeds 13 characters -
do I replace 13 with the longest share name we have?

See tip 9102 in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsiinc.com for an updated script and explanation.
There is no need to update anything in the new script.
The script does assume that there is no spaces in a computer name or a share name.
