yes, sorry about that...I forgot to say that these shares are not hidden, so I am thinking I do not need the +chr(36) part.

how stupid of me...this is so elementary...you are so patient! I see that you have been doing this for quite a while. I see posts from over a year ago from you on this topic. Wow. Thank you for not abandoning the newbies! Thank you for staying in this forum.

Here is my new script (I'm trying to make it a little bit more sophisticated-looking):

use "*" /delete

$s1="\\server1\"
$s2="\\server2\"

$hdrive=$s1+@userid
$archives=$s2+@userid

use H: $hdrive

IF INGROUP(ARCHIVES)
use O: $archives

...and guess what??? it works!!! You are my hero! I thank you for pointing out my syntax error. Thank you for sticking with me on this. Just, well, Thank you for your help!!!! [Wink] [Embarrassed] [Cool] [Smile] [Smile] [Smile] [Smile]
