On Win32 (ie VB4/32-bit) you can call GetLogicalDrives() or
GetLogicalDriveStrings() and then call GetDriveType() for each logical
drive. For Win16, things get harder - you have to write some yucky
assembler, and put it in a DLL. There was a DLL around called VBASM
which I believe could do what you are after.
