Jeremy,
There is a Windows API function called
GetDriveType which returns an integer value depending on wether the drive is
removable (which would be a floppy or zip drive), remote (network drive), CD
ROM, HDD etc. . I would suggest just feeding each letter of the
elphaget into this function until you get a removable retured. You could
probably start at d (since a zip drive is unlikely to be a, b or c). Don't
know how it would work with a zip drive that was on another machine that yours
is mapped to.
