Hi,

Is there a function that takes a file path with a mapped drive
(z:\blah) and returns the associated UNC path
(\\server\share\ding\dang\dong\blah)? I looked in os.path, but it
doesn't seem to have this. The link below seems to be a solution
(code in the bottom of the page), but I can't install win32com.client
in the office :-( Is there any built-in function?

There's nothing built-in. The easiest function to emulate
through ctypes is probably WNetGetConnection:

(this is available from pywin32 via the win32wnet package
but I assume you can't install that either)
