Connect to a remote share AUTOMATICALLY, with NO user input.

Ive seen a lot of source code that can bring up the window asking the user to connect to a remote share, but none of which would work without user input. This API call (WNetAddConnection) is very easy and simple to use, altho i cant guarrentee it will work on 98/ME.... tHe_cLeanER
