Network Drive Access

[mikeb]

I am using VIsual 6 C++ with older style C access routines. When
attempting to access files on a network drive, the files appear
un-available. Is this due to the version of access routines <stdio> ?
Thanks - Mike B.

Doubtful, but you should ask on a group that deals with Microsoft
products (see the list at
http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/how-to-post.html#faq-5.9).

BTW, there is no <stdio>. There is <cstdio> and <stdio.h>, however.

There is no fundamental difference between the C standard IO and C++ IO
streams in the VC++ implementation. In fact they are both implemented
using the same code base. If you screwed up something in your
implementation's libraries then that's another story. In any case, the
problem is most certainly not a C++ language issue, so you should
rather ask in a MS newsgroup.
