you don't mention an OS...
and scripts @ boot are not something I use...
but here's a place to start:
Microsoft Corporation

Hi guys...
As long as it's NT or above...this will work - and you don't need it to be a VB script...

Start -> Run -> notepad <ok>

net use z: \\winters\myshare /y

File -> Save As -> browse to All Users startup folder -> logon.bat

that is just an example
z: is what drive you want the network drive to be
winters is the computer name where the network drive is stored on
myshare is the share name of what you want the drive to reference
