[Metakit] Windows UNC filenames

I can’t find the correct syntax to open a shared network file, readonly,
on WinXp using VC7.
 
e.g. “c4_Storage store(“\\\\shared\\myfile.db”,0);” doesn’t work (nor do
any back-slash or forward-slash variants I’ve tried).
 
The file does exist and can be opened, and used, over the network from
mk4tcl – no trouble.
 
Don’t laugh, please advise on the correct technique.
 
Thanks,
 
Phil Bennett
