When Windows (XP) starts up and I log in, mapped network drives are not
accessible until they have been "browsed". I.E. if I open QuickBooks or
any other application and select a "Recently Used" file that exists on a
mapped network drive, it says the file is not accessible. However, if I
select "open" and select the mapped drive it will then connect.

Thanks,
Randy.

use net delete * command to delete all connection and the create a batch to map the drives with persistence: no. post back with the result.
