Ok I am at school at the moment. The way the school gives us our own folders on its network is by giving us folders which are named after the student which owns the folder. For example, My student no. is 629694 and my name is tidus. First, I have to log in, because every student get their own acct. I know that the names of the students are listed in the properties of the folders or account no.s because after log in, when i press crt+alt+del it tells me my real name and stuff like that. now that thats out of the way, heres my problem. I want to find out the no. of a folder which belongs to my friend. I know my friends real name and stuff, but not the student no. I need to know if there is any way I can search the network folder for the student name so that i can find out the friend's student no. and folder. Thx ^^ ... >< Plz help, thx Someone Suggested ad tools, but I have no idea what they are and where to get them >< Help plz? ><

The solution is simple. Just ask your "friend" for his number. If he doesn't mind you snooping around in his folder, I'm sure he'll be willing to give you the information you need.
