Having a problem mapping shares in Win 7.. using Euphoria v4.0

Using

system_exec("net use z: \"\\\\Share\\My File\"",2) 

will not map the share.. produces a system error.

Both shares can be mapped from the command line:

net use x: "
Share\My File"

Is there a solution?

There is a known issue with using spaces and quotes with system_exec() on Windoze.

A patch was made to fix this, http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/122196.wc , but it's so new that there is no release with this fix.

The usual workaround is to pass parameters through shortfilename(), see http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/122121.wc , but I suspect that this is not applicable for remote shares. Instead, I recommend that you try Kat's solution here instead: http://openeuphoria.org/forum/m/122976.wc
