Hi All,

   I am trying to write a program to do a automatic backup. I have some
questions.
   1. How can I detect a USB drive connection?
   2. How can I get the drive letter?(If everytime is given a different
drive letter)

Are you using NET 2? If so look at the DriveInfo class, it can give you an
array of drives and each of them has a DriveType.
