Connect to special/hidden shares

Expand Post »
Is it possible to connect to the hidden/special shares on some network computers from a VB application? i mean C$, D$, ADMIN$, other_share$.
i have the local user Administrator and the password for those computers.
Can it be done without having to use shell commands (net use, nbtstat etc) ? I know is a little bit unsecure but this would be great for me. I need to place some shortcuts, or applications in the startup for each user. I think i can do this connecting as admin.

any ideea is welcomed. thx

Re: Connect to special/hidden shares

check the win32api.txt file and search for 'windows network support'

everything is listed in that section regarding the functions you need

i know how to do it under delphi, but ain't converted it to vb yet
