OLE error code 0x80020006: Unknown name.

[Juan Alonso]

I am getting this error "OLE error code 0x80020006: Unknown name." while
using this code.

oWS = CREATEOBJECT('Wscript.Network')
oWS.MapNetwordDrive('Q:','\\dakota\corporate\foxpro\auto\dbf',.f.,'','')
<<<===== (AT THIS LINE)

It is suppose to map a network drive to Q

But I get the OLE error and I don't know why?

If anyone can help.

Thank you,

Juan.

Maybe network?

MS Word hasn't taken over everything.

Nope.

Thought it was that but no.

I can use other type of mapping tools inside windows from VFP and it works
fine.

I wonder if what is really happening is that I have to have an updated
Windows Script installed.??

I will try and see if it is that. If it is I will post back here.

Meanwhile, I am on the same boat so far. I don't know yet. he he ..

That's what I did. I got access denied and that's to be expected. But
I didn't get Unknown Name like you did.

first of all, you have the wrong function name.
its not "MapNetwordDrive" but "MapNetworkDrive"

secondly, you cannot specify the password and user as '' for the last 2
parameters

it works if you use .null. for each
or if you use the actual username and password
