> >       Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
> >       Set dc = fso.Drives
> >       For Each d in dc
> >         s = s & d.DriveLetter & " - "
> >         If d.DriveType = 3 Then
> >           n = d.ShareName
> >         ElseIf d.IsReady Then
> >           n = d.VolumeName
> >         End If
> >         s = s & n & "<BR>"
