How to convert local path to UNC-path?
Thank you Ken!
I tried the second example and it works fine with the network devices that
are mapped on my machine. How ever, this was not the problem. I have shared
D:\Temp\testi on my machine with sharename "testi". My machine name is
JANNE_01. The example code that worked fine with network drives, returned
"D:\Temp\testi" where I wished it would have returned \\JANNE_01\testi.
I still seek in the dark.
Best regards
Janne
