Access an USB memory stick regardless of the driveletter it got?
Uwe,
Update
For changing anything you need admin previleges.
But, not having tested it is not knowing it. :-)
As you expected, it didn't work. :- \ Oh well.

I was silently hoping that, as my USB stick is removable media and as such
under the control of me, the user, it would recognise that fact and allow
me
to change its driveletter.
On the other hand, I've already encountered a situation where the 'puter
didn't even allow me to format *my own* USB memory stick (it did allow me
to
read/write/delete it though), so I know/knew its a long shot.
But, not having tested it is not knowing it. :-)
If you can convince the admins to install USBDLM
[snip]
Thanks for the suggestion. Its a possibility. I was hoping for a more
"userland" solution though (working everywhere, even where admins are less
willing to make adjustments).
Shucks. It might even turn out that that batchfile solution using SUBST
is
the best one (in regard to "works everywhere") I can hope to create ....
