What it is: In a nutshell.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Virtual Net Drive is a 32-bit program and a 32 bit VXD
for Windows95/98 designed to allow any number of drives or folders
to be Virtually Mapped.

Virtual Net Drive easy to use, yet fully featured.
Integrated into Windows Explorer adding the capabilty to use long 
filename for mapped drives with no limit on the number of drives you
can map. We use one drive. Typicaly the default is Z: 
All Other drives/folders are mapped to our virtual drive.

How to use it: QUICK START!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Because it is integrated into Windows Explore there is no application
to run!

Make Sure you have REBOOTED after installing.

To map a virtual drive: 
1. Right click on a drive or folder on you local drive or network.
2. Select Virtual Net Drive Map. 
3. Assign a long filename for that Drive/Folder.
4. Refresh Explorer
5. Click on that name in the Virtual Drive Host letter.

To Delete a virutal map:
1. Right click on the Folder name in the Virtual Drive Host letter.
2. Select the delete the Virtual Net Drive Name Option.
3. Refresh Explorer


3. Support/Registration
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Note: REMEMBER You virtual drive is a true map. 
DO NOT attemped to delete the virtual drive by deleting the name 
from the Virtual Drive Host letter. It will remove the files.

4. For the Network Administrator and Developer Guru's
----------------------------------------------------------------------
To setup eveybody's Windows mapping's the same install
Virtual Net Drive on each computer.
Use one computer to setup the drive configuration. 
Goto the directory where you installed VND and copy the system level
directory and everthing beneath it. Copy those files to each workstation.
At this point everbody has the same drive mapping.
Any computer that you go to will have EXACTLY the same drive mappings!

To Optimize backup installations.
No need to have several runs of you backup software because all of 
the drives cannot be mapped at the same time.

Simply tell the backup software to backup the virtual drive!
Now you can backup even Suzie's desktop because there is no fear of
running out of drives.

VND has been tested on Windows 95/98 NT Version soon comming!
Compressed drives have shown no problems as of this date.
Novell/Microsoft Networking have shown no problems.
On some Win98 installations the properties of the disk space 
on the virtual reports eronous data.
Norton utilities, disk managers and anti-virus software works fine.
