I haven't tried this, but perhaps you can investigate the item ID list of
the CD-ROM and DVD-ROM 'folders' and distinguish between the different types
that way?

For example, the first byte of the ID list (PIDL->mkid.abID[0]) is
0x31 for a normal folder, 0x41 for a workgroup or domain, 0x42 for a network
node, 0x47 for the 'Network neighborhood' folder, etc.

I don't know if this works in all versions of Windows though...

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Martin Nijhoff
