And the type of files you want to share is? And these files recedes on what?
File system, DB, or? And the platform you working on is? Anyhow:
If assume we are talking about regular flat files and you are using NT. Then
why not try to make a share? Then you can access the files just as any
normal file receding in the file system.
Syntax for net share:
[d:\vc98\include]net help share
The syntax of this command is:
NET SHARE sharename
sharename=drive:path [/USERS:number | /UNLIMITED]
[/REMARK:"text"]
sharename [/USERS:number | /UNLIMITED]
[/REMARK:"text"]
{sharename | devicename | drive:path} /DELETE
NET SHARE makes a server's resources available to network users. When
used without options, it lists information about all resources being
shared on the computer. For each resource, Windows NT reports the
devicename(s) or pathname(s) and a descriptive comment associated with it.
sharename Is the network name of the shared resource. Type
NET SHARE with a sharename only to display information
about that share.
drive:path Specifies the absolute path of the directory to
be shared.
/USERS:number Sets the maximum number of users who can
simultaneously access the shared resource.
/UNLIMITED Specifies an unlimited number of users can
simultaneously access the shared resource
/REMARK:"text" Adds a descriptive comment about the resource.
Enclose the text in quotation marks.
devicename Is one or more printers (LPT1: through LPT9:)
shared by sharename.
/DELETE Stops sharing the resource.
NET HELP command | MORE displays Help one screen at a time.
