Hi Simon,
thank you for your reply.
There is a way to query the path of a substed drive - look for this article "Get Absolute Path of Drive mapped to local folder" at http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/netfxnetcom/thread/e43cc927-4bcc-42d7-9630-f5fdfdb4a1fa
The background of our strategy is working with different releases of our libs mapped to drive "L:", so we can switch with one click between releases without reconfiguration of our IDEs (searchpathes, buildscripts etc.). Additionally we have a drive "P:" which represents projects and applications. All that is under our root-project WC with trunk, releases and tags located at C:\Working. I hope you could get the picture...
Big thank you for your work!
