ok i found it.....here it is, i just used the windows script host object model
heres how
i made a reference to it in the add reference dialog
then to set the drive to be mapped i just used

Dim connect As IWshRuntimeLibr ary.WshNetwork

connect = New IWshRuntimeLibr ary.WshNetwork
connect.MapNetw orkDrive("drive you want in string format", "localname and share", False, "username", "password")
connect = Nothing
so there it is....
