For getting the share folder name i have been used the following code , here i am able to get the folder names . But the problem what i am facing is along with the share folder created by the user it gives some extra folder also , i don't know how to prevent the programe to hide that unnecessary folder names . Like in my case i am getting "cc_views"(used for clearcase) and "Users" folders , which i want to remove from my folder lists .

I wrote the following codes , Please help in getting the correct output .

#ifndef UNICODE
#define UNICODE
#endif
#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <lm.h>

void wmain( int argc, TCHAR *lpszArgv[ ])
{
   PSHARE_INFO_502 BufPtr,p;
   NET_API_STATUS res;
   LPTSTR   lpszServer = NULL;
   DWORD er=0,tr=0,resume=0, i;

   switch(argc)
   {
   case 2:
      lpszServer = lpszArgv[1];
      break;
   default:
      printf("Usage: NetShareEnum <servername>\n");
      //return;
   }
   //
   // Print a report header.
   //
   printf("ShareFolderName\n");
   printf("----------------\n");
   //
   // Call the NetShareEnum function; specify level 502.
   //
   do // begin do
   {
      res = NetShareEnum ((LPSTR)lpszServer, 502, (LPBYTE *) &BufPtr, MAX_PREFERRED_LENGTH, &er, &tr, &resume);
      //
      // If the call succeeds,
      //
      if(res == ERROR_SUCCESS || res == ERROR_MORE_DATA)
      {
         p=BufPtr;
         //
         // Loop through the entries;
         //  print retrieved data.
         //
         for(i=1;i<=er;i++)
         {
             LPCTSTR str = (LPCTSTR)p->shi502_remark;
             if(!(lstrcmpi(str,L"Remote admin")==0 ||lstrcmpi(str, L"Remote IPC")==0 || lstrcmpi(str,L"Default share")==0))
                printf("%-20S%\n",p->shi502_netname);
            p++;
         }
         //
         // Free the allocated buffer.
         //
         NetApiBufferFree(BufPtr);
      }
      else 
         printf("Error: %ld\n",res);
   }
   // Continue to call NetShareEnum while 
   //  there are more entries. 
   // 
   while (res==ERROR_MORE_DATA); // end do
   return;
}

I am not sure if this will help but take a look at this function as well:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa385449(v=vs.85).aspx

Also if you are willing to sacrifice a little bit of modularity you could store all names in an array and remove the names which you are sure that are not neccessary.

Anyway i don't think that there's a way of instructing this api function to return specified results.
