This works fine for me on LAN.  Not sure about intranet.
you may have to go the poor mans DNS route and alter your local host file on the client machine to look like something:
 
 
192.168.100.10    DraftServer
 
 
where DraftServer is the server that has the Drafting share on it.

Subject: [MI-L] workspaces and ip addresses

Hi List,  I was wondering if anyone has experience with saving workspaces on their intranet and having the open table command in the workspace point to an ip address instead of a mapped pathname?
 
for example
*********************************
Open Table "\\192.168.100.10\Drafting\Drawing2\50960\50960-01\Keprojects" As Keprojects Interactive
Open Table "\\192.168.100.12\_mapinfo\UK\UKCTY203.TAB" As UKCTY203 Interactive
Open Table "\\192.168.100.12\_mapinfo\UK\UK_REGNS.TAB" As UK_REGNS Interactive
Open Table "\\192.168.100.12\_mapinfo\UK\UKMTRWAY.TAB" As UKMTRWAY Interactive
*******************************
 
I can't seem to make it work, all that happens is; when the user trys to open the workspace it asks where all the files are stored. 
 
Does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing, that they could shed some light on it for me?
 
thanks for any help
:) cathy
