Drives Property

Description

Returns a Drives collection consisting of all Drive objects available on the local machine.

Syntax

object.Drives

The object is always a FileSystemObject.

Remarks

Removable-media drives need not have media inserted for them to appear in the Drives collection.

You can iterate the members of the Drives collection using a For Each...Next construct as illustrated in the following code:

Function ShowDriveList
  Dim fso, d, dc, s, n
  Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
  Set dc = fso.Drives
  For Each d in dc
    n = ""
    s = s & d.DriveLetter & " - " 
    If d.DriveType = 3 Then
      n = d.ShareName
    ElseIf d.IsReady Then
      n = d.VolumeName
    End If
    s = s & n & "<BR>"
  Next
  ShowDriveList = s
End Function
