53 is ERROR_BAD_NETPATH.  You are specifying the remote machine's name as
the share where you should be specifying the name of the actual share that
the remote computer has defined.  You are also not including backslashes in
the server name

Try this instead (untested):

    void __fastcall TmainForm::create_share_drive(void)
    {
        SHARE_INFO_2 p = {0};
        DWORD parm_err = 0;

        p.shi2_netname = TEXT("TheShareName");
        p.shi2_type = STYPE_DISKTREE; // disk drive
        p.shi2_remark = TEXT("TheShareName test");
        p.shi2_permissions = ACCESS_ALL;
        p.shi2_max_uses = -1;
        p.shi2_current_uses = 0;
        p.shi2_path = TEXT("C:\\DTT");
        p.shi2_passwd = NULL; // no password

        NetShareAdd(TEXT("\\\\DTTServer"), 2, (LPBYTE) &p, &parm_err);
    }
