Default Is there a way to map more than 26 drives? what letter after Z?

I have a 5 station LAN, and am beginning to run out of drive letters,
what happens after I get to Z? Can I just use double letters after
that? AA, BB, etc.

thanks,
niteowl

Try re-arranging your drive mapping so that you are mapping to higher-level
folders (even the root folder) and you may be able to get your drive letter
usage down.
