Network Services

The network functions allow communication between applications on different computers on a network. You can use these functions to create and manage connections to shared resources, such as directories and network printers, on computers in the network.

The network interfaces include Windows Networking and Network Management. Windows 95/98 supports a subset of these functions. To determine whether a function is supported on Windows 95/98, see the Requirements section in the documentation for the function.
