Thank you for this solution. I haven't done much coding with the Windows API, and a new project required me to resolve network paths (using drive letters) to UNC paths. Most of the solutions I found on the web are in VB and not easily converted to VS2005 C++. The only other solution I found used a ManagementObjectSearcher and a SQL'ish statement to resolve the UNC path. However, it took nearly 5-10 seconds per function call. Yours works much better.
Thanks

| nice, but need WNetGetNetworkInformation

Really nice, it's exaclty what I was searching for.
The only thing missing to fully feed my need is the WNetGetNetworkInformation function.
Here is what I want to do :
I have a network connection (ex. Z: pointing on \\server\Dir) that I want to redirect temporary on a local directory (ex. Z: pointing on \\Computer_Name\C$\Windows\Temp) and after some job redirect it again to its previous location (\\server\Dir).
When I unmap a connection without making it persistent, the API won't let me redirect it to another location. Consequently, I have to make the change persistent and if so, I cannot use the RestoreConnection function. 
I want to be able to know where a drive connection where accessing before I change it, I suppose that the WNetGetNetworkInformation is the right API to use, but When I tried to add it to your class I had some problem with the Interfacing thing (kind of thing I'm not used to yet).
Is anybody can give me a quick method to get a path drive connection?
Or then, can you help me find my problem with my essaie?
Thanks in advance about everyting.

Sorry... 
I meant the WNetGetConnection rather than WNetGetNetworkInformation...

With a little time and willing and the help of Calishar (thanks for giving me the www.pinvoke.net link), I sucess to get the network name of a local drive
Here is the code for that...
(In the API section)
[DllImport("mpr.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto, SetLastError=true)] private static extern int WNetGetConnection( string localName, StringBuilder remoteName, ref int length);
private const int NO_ERROR = 0x00000000;
(In the core functions sections)
private String zGetConnection(String szDriveLetter)
{
int length = 100;
StringBuilder remoteName = new StringBuilder(length);
int res = WNetGetConnection(szDriveLetter, remoteName, ref length);
if(res==ERROR_MORE_DATA)
{
remoteName = new String Builder(length);
res = WNetGetConnection(szDriveLetter, remoteName, ref length);
}
if(res==NO_ERROR)
return remoteNAme.ToString();
else
throw new System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception(res);
}
That's it!
You can now create a mapping function call "GetDriveFullPath" or equivalent that calls zGetConnection and you're in business.
Hope this will help!
Ciao!

Nice job on the downloadable stuff, the article wasn't long, but the code was what I was looking for.
Thanks!
