Windows Help: Alternate Ways of Accessing Network Drives

There are alternative ways to get to network resources that you should be aware of - that may be quicker for you and you do not need to wait for us to create.

For instance, if you go to your 'Start' button then 'Run' and type in \\Sondata\group then press OK you will find yourself at the same location if you go to through "My Computer"
and doubleclick on K to open the drive.

There are also other ways to get there as well. You can use "Network Neighborhood" in Windows 2000 or "My Network Places" in windows XP and browse to Sondata.

Doubleclicking on it will open to the 'Server Shares' and the list for Sondata. You will see Group & Share. Share and Group are our O and K drives, respectively.

These are methods for accessing network resources you can use elsewhere as well - for any of our servers - \\artemis for network printers or \\sonapp1 or \\sonapp2 for applications.
