Hello all,

I am very new to the programming world. I would like to build a small, run-at-logon application displaying text in a basic textbox with an OK button at the bottom. I would like it to do the following (preferably in this order, if possible):

-Welcome the user with their username
-Display the date/time
-Tell the user which Active Directory Server authenticated them
-Map network drives with the following information displayed:
+"Mapping \\servername\sharename as X:"
-(I can add all that information if someone gets me started)

If anyone could give me a place to start, I'd be very grateful.

I've been doing lots of Googling and searching CodeProject.com and haven't found what I'm looking for.

Also, I'd prefer it be in C# or C++.

Many thanks in advance!

You cannot find exactly the same app \ code that you are looking for but still you can get very close to what are you looking for:

In a web app:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316748[^]
In windows app:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Om6pCLE0Qpo[^]

There are so many other examples too that you can find online.. they may not be packaged at one single example but you can still find them in pieces separately. Hope it helps..
