just a simple command is not working.

if I do
cd c:\ it works
if I do
cd d:\ it does not work

any ideas why ?
infact I do have the d: drive on my machine and I can access the files from windows explorer

Thanks
 
I assume you are doing this in a command prompt in XP? If so, what error are you getting when you try accessing the D:?
 
You would have to be in the D: drive to do CD D:\ If you are in C:\ drive you would have to do a D: Enter first. Also you can do a CD.. to move back one folder at a time.
 
Thanks erikhertzel,
Thanks for your quick reply, and sorry that I didn't check the replies so soon.


Thanks allteltec, that works

Thats something I never noticed.

So.... I don't have to do cd d:\
I can just do d:\

Thanks again
