DriveLetter Property

Article
12/04/2006

Returns the drive letter of a physical local drive or a network share. Read-only.


object.DriveLetter

Remarks

The object is always a Drive object.

The DriveLetter property returns a zero-length string ("") if the specified drive is not associated with a drive letter, for example, a network share that has not been mapped to a drive letter.

The following code illustrates the use of the DriveLetter property:

function ShowDriveLetter(drvPath)

{

   var fso, d, s;

   fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");

   d = fso.GetDrive(fso.GetDriveName(drvPath));

   s = "Drive " + d.DriveLetter.toUpperCase( ) + ": - ";

   s += d.VolumeName + "<br>";

   s += "Available Space: " + d.AvailableSpace/1024 + " Kbytes";

   return(s);

}

Function ShowDriveLetter(drvPath)

   Dim fso, d, s

   Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

   Set d = fso.GetDrive(fso.GetDriveName(drvPath))

   s = "Drive " & d.DriveLetter & ": - " 

   s = s & d.VolumeName & "<BR>"

   s = s & "Free Space: " & FormatNumber(d.FreeSpace/1024, 0) 

   s = s & " Kbytes"

   ShowDriveLetter = s

End Function
