Returns the network share name for a specified drive.

object.ShareName 

The object is always a Drive object.

Remarks

If object is not a network drive, the ShareName property returns a zero-length string ("").

The following code illustrates the use of the ShareName property:

[JScript]
function ShowDriveInfo(drvpath)
{
   var fso, d, s;
   fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
   d = fso.GetDrive(fso.GetDriveName(fso.GetAbsolutePathName(drvpath)));
   s = "Drive " + d.DriveLetter + ": - " + d.ShareName;
   return(s);
}
[VBScript]
Function ShowDriveInfo(drvpath)
   Dim fso, d
   Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
   Set d = fso.GetDrive(fso.GetDriveName(fso.GetAbsolutePathName(drvpath)))
   ShowDriveInfo = "Drive " & d.DriveLetter & ": - " & d.ShareName
End Function
