network drive issue cached credentials

[zeos]

I have a network drive mapped and the username and pass are cached by the command below. The hang up is that I can only access programs on the network drive if I first go to my computer and then the double click on the network drive, even though I have the command caching the credentials at start up.

net use \\server1 sharepass /u:shareuser

Is there any way to set things up so that I can just use the program on the network drive without having to go to my computer and double clicking the network drive.
