Locate the computer that has the shared resource you want to access. Right-click the resource. Select Map Network Drive from the menu. If you do not want to connect to the shared directory each time you log on, clear the checkbox for Reconnect at Logon. You cannot connect to a shared network resource unless you have permission to do so.
Access is controlled by the owner of the resource.
If the toolbar is not visible, click the View menu, and then click Toolbar. To map to a resource you have used recently, click the arrow to the right of Path, and then click the resource you want. The previous ten paths are displayed. In the Explorer, you can also click Map Network Drive on the Tools menu. The name of the computer's first shared directory is added to Path and the computer's shared directories are displayed in Shared Directories.
