 Returns

     The returned value gives the number of logical drives used by DOS.

 Description

     NUMDISKL() returns the number of available drives or the value specified

     which is the first network drive (LASTDRIVE +1).

        deviating input in CONFIG.SYS for LASTDRIVE =.

     Display which drive is the first network drive:

     ? "First Network Drive:  " + CHR(NUMDISKL() + 65) + ":"
