Description
Returns the drive letter of a physical local drive or a network share. Read-only.
Syntax
object.DriveLetter

The object is always a Drive object.

Remarks
The DriveLetter property returns a zero-length string ("") if the specified drive is not associated with a drive letter, for example, a network share that has not been mapped to a drive letter.

The following code illustrates the use of the DriveLetter property: 

Function ShowDriveLetter(drvPath)
  Dim fso, d, s
  Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
  Set d = fso.GetDrive(fso.GetDriveName(drvPath))
  s = "Drive " & d.DriveLetter & ": - " 
  s = s & d.VolumeName & "<BR>"
  s = s & "Free Space: " & FormatNumber(d.FreeSpace/1024, 0) 
  s = s & " Kbytes"
  ShowDriveLetter = s
End Function
