Hi,

Could someone tell me how to retrieve a drive's drive letter from user mode
given its device name? Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Priya

I apologise for not making my question more specific. By device name, I meant
the name retrieved from the dbcc_name field of the
DEV_BROADCAST_DEVICEINTERFACE structure received as part of a device
notification. I'm trying to find the drive letter using this device name.

Thanks,
Priya
