Hi,

strange things happen on Vista:
In VB6 i use the drivelistbox and the dirlistbox. I ve shared F:\ with a
netwerkdrive. In teh executable I can pick the netwerk share F:. In the
development enviroment I can't select the drive and when a execute:
drive1.drive="F:" I receive device unavailable (error 6. Offcourse the
drive is ready and I can see it in the explorer.
Is this Vista? The same kind of error (error 70) I had with sendkeys "{F1}"
this line works fine in exe files, but not in the development enviroment.
The problem is I can't debug my app without this function because the
chdrive won't work either.

please reply

I can't recreate the problem here, unless I use a drive
letter that hasn't been mapped.
