ARCsolo Network Drive Listing Is Different in Windows 95

ID: Q135184

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS

When you are running ARCsolo version 3.01 or 3.02 by Cheyenne Software in Windows 95, the listing of network drives mapped to Microsoft servers (Windows for Workgroups, LAN Manager, Windows NT, or Windows 95 servers) does not appear as it does in Windows 3.1.

CAUSE

ARCsolo relies on entries in the System.ini file that are not present in Windows 95.

RESOLUTION

Place the following entry in the [boot] section of the System.ini file, and then restart Windows 95:

network.drv=commctrl.dll

MORE INFORMATION

ARCsolo reads the "network.drv=" entry to determine which DLL to load. If the entry is not present, the attempt fails and the network drive listing is not correct. Any DLL will work for this entry; Commctrl.dll is simply a usable example.
